In the simulator Report screen, showing all trading systems, their is an option to create metrics to add to the simulator reports.
I went through the documentation fairly well, and I could not find the documentation on the expected syntax or examples of adding a metric here.
I tried commands like
Functions.AddMetric("avgbar", AverageBarsHeld);
but that did not work.

Could you please post an example, or direct me to some existing ones if I missed it. Thanks much.

My friend, Alex Horn, pointed out the easy path

1) Add metric from simulator menu "create a metric"
2) Use the format Fitness =
then use ctrl space to choose the metric. Compile and save.
3) Select metrics you want to appear in the optimization report

I did this + it works well.

However, in experimenting, I created a formula I need to edit/fix or delete. How do I edit existing fitness metric formulas?

Thanks

Last questioned answered - can edit via load formula; so all is good.
