  • back testing analyzer result

    if you see the attached document-there is only one trade.
    where 3 contracts are bought at 830.8
    one contract is sold at 831.8
    2nd contract sold at 831.8
    3rd contract sold at 832
    so the total profit on this trade is $220

    why is the report showing negative profit?.

        Hello Sumi,

        It looks like you may have included commissions or slippage amounts in your back test settings. Click on the Settings icon in the Strategy Analyzer and make sure Slippage and Commission are set to 0.
