  • Auto naming of efs-results

    using 7.3 i want to use the "auto naming" feature for the results of backtests.

    while the folders setup (tools -> backtest -> button setup) works ok, the automatic file naming seems not to be perfect,
    for separators are ignored completely.

    what is the use of the [formula] keyword ? i never saw something filled into it by the automatic file naming routine.

    therefore a filename sample of

    [Symbol][Interval][Formula][Year]Month][Day]

    with a given separator of "_" (underscore) results in a filename

    ES #F520030523.xml

    Consecutive tests on the same time frame result in filenames

    ES #F520030523-n.xml .

    can anyone assist in that please ?

    thanks in advance,
    eltee

    eltee,

    I am able to duplicate the problem with the underscore separator not functioning. Also, other characters don't seem to be working either. I'll report this to our QA Team for further investigation.

    Regarding the [formula] keyword using 7.3 build 588 (i.e. the release version), this is replaced by the filename of the efs file being used without the .efs extension.
