Hi, i'm backtesting 900 individual securities using the Symlist indicator and money management script QS team has created. It works great but i'm curious to know if there is a way to display how many trades each symbol was involved in and display the total # of trades next to the symbol name. Rather than having to run the report on each symbol and then going to ''statistics.''

Sort of like a column next to, ie: A. return, drawdown, sharpe etc

thank you

Best Answer

You must first add a report metric in the "OnStartSimulation" event of the money management script:

Functions.AddReportMetric("Trades", 0);

Then calculate the number of trades in the "OnEndSimulation" event:

double trades = Portfolio.GetAllPositions().Length;
Variables.SetVariable("Trades", trades);
