I wrote a small conversion program in C# to convert my txt files into the ; delimited no OI and with a 6 digit timestamp, ie so I can import historic data. As I want to check out the flexibility in the backtesting features.
The error reads in the log:
Unexpected number of fields in line, should be 6 or 3.
The help files are showing 7 fields, for 1 min intra day data, whats the true situation, bug or help file issue? Im gonna mess with it, ie remove the volume from the intra day and see if that cures it. Whats the score with the daily fields, what should they be?
Please let me know.
Also,
I dont know whether it is possible yet, as Im still trying to import the data but does the backtesting suite support analysis from the portfolio and or sector level? If not then I think this addition will make for a truly wonderful and powerful overview. Im also hoping that position algorithms can be set and incorporated into the backtest feature (Im presuming so)?
I wrote my own intra-day testing harness in C++ which took a few years and I believe if you crack the portfolio and sector analysis, youll make my own work redundant to some extents.
I'm laughing...
Cheers
