Back Testing - Starting Capital (how to reset it while cBOT is running)
10 Nov 2015, 21:00


Hi,

wanted to know if there is any specific code that can be run while the cBOT is running, which can reset the "Starting Captial" on every Monday or on the 1st of every month.

 

right now, for backtesting I have to manually stop and restart the cBOT and then change date to next week b4 running the cBOT again.  It becomes very time consuming.

I want to run my cBOT for a whole year, and want to weekly note its performance. But right now I am not able to do it as on a new week how do i reset the cBOT.

 

If anyone can help !

regards.

Dear Trader,

Currently there is no way to reset the Starting Capital programmatically. It isn't in our plans to provide Users this ability.

We recommend you to post your suggestion to http://vote.spotware.com/ and if it collects enough votes, we will consider providing it.
