Backtesting equity chart problem (API v3.5)
29 Jun 2019, 02:41
Hi there,
I wanted to report that after the API update while i'm using this custome Trailing Stop from click algo tutorials, the equity chart fails to produce the correct equity drawdown although i believe the maximum equity drawdown in Trade Statics is correct but i need to see the individual equity drawdown of each trade.
i would be glad to hear if anyone has any suggestions on adepting this code to the new API since i cannot undrestand the problem myself and there are no warnings while compiling the code.
[Parameter("Trailing Stop Trigger (pips) :", DefaultValue = 26)]
public int TrailingStopTrigger { get; set; }
[Parameter("Trailing Stop Step (pips) : ", DefaultValue = 5)]
public int TrailingStopStep { get; set; }
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
var sellPositions = Positions.FindAll(InstanceName, Symbol, TradeType.Sell);
foreach (Position position in sellPositions)
{
double distance = position.EntryPrice - Symbol.Ask;
if (distance < TrailingStopTrigger * Symbol.PipSize)
continue;
double newStopLossPrice = Symbol.Ask + TrailingStopStep * Symbol.PipSize;
if (position.StopLoss == null || newStopLossPrice < position.StopLoss)
{
ModifyPosition(position, newStopLossPrice, position.TakeProfit);
}
}
var buyPositions = Positions.FindAll(InstanceName, Symbol, TradeType.Buy);
foreach (Position position in buyPositions)
{
double distance = Symbol.Bid - position.EntryPrice;
if (distance < TrailingStopTrigger * Symbol.PipSize)
continue;
double newStopLossPrice = Symbol.Bid - TrailingStopStep * Symbol.PipSize;
if (position.StopLoss == null || newStopLossPrice > position.StopLoss)
{
ModifyPosition(position, newStopLossPrice, position.TakeProfit);
}
}
this code gets called on tick
this is the chart while using trailing stop
and this is the chart without the trailing stop
