I am back-testing various trading strategies and am running simulations by running ranges of various parameters/indicators. At the top of the simulation report window you get the line by line results of each case within a simulation run (annual return, sharpe ratio, % winners, variables a, b, c, etc). Is there a way to export those to a file for further analysis. I'd like to go to Excel and compare annual return or sharpe ratio, for example, vs individual variables. I see where you can export the results of an individual case within a simulation, but how about exporting the aggregate results of all the cases (be they 40 or 400) within a simulation run.
Sorry, Barbecue, when I go back to the simulator the only tools menu item I see is after I select the system in manage items (button with folder at bottom of the simulator pane) and if I click that I only get the following options in Tools "Copy Item", "Import items from another Account," "Encrypt Checked Items", "Decrpyt Checked Items" and "Show/Hide Creation Date". On the report pane where all the simulation results are listed for an optimization run, I see the report button on each line reporting a simulation result but that only gives me the details of that single simulation case within the whole set of simulation cases that make up an optimization run. I want to export the metrics (annual return, sharpe, etc) and variables optimized for ALL of the simulation cases that make up an optimization run. What I really want to do is similar to just pasting and copying all those lines in that uppermost pane into an Excel spreadsheet for analysis. Is there a temp file somewhere where these results would be stored?
Trading financial instruments, including foreign exchange on margin, carries a high level of risk and is not suitable for all investors.
