Commissions and Slippage

In the simulation performance report (statistics page), can you please add one row for slippage and a separate row for commissions? This should be easy to add I would think. I would greatly appreciate it. Right now I can't easily tell how much of an impact slippage has on my systems.

Thanks in advance.

Thank you for the suggestion. We will add this in the next release. "Commissions" can be found next to "Total Trading Costs".

Yes, our broker charged 0.5% per trader, in case commission less than HK$130, they will charged HK$130.

Could you increase min commission from 2 digit to 3 digit?

3 digit minimun commission still haven't implement yet...
How could I set the minimum commission within Simulator manually?

It is implemented (3 digit). You just need to update the "Min Commissions" field under "Settings -> Capital" when you create/edit a trading system.

I can't, whenever I put in 230, it auto changed back to 99.000
(My broker had increased the min commission to 230)

I guess you are not referring to dollars here. The field has a 100 limit. There is a misunderstanding, since the beginning we though you are referring to digits after the decimal.

We are sorry about that. We will increase that limit in the next release.
