    Multi Instrument Backtest

    I have built a strategy with the sample code in the Multi-Time Frame and Instruments section of the Help guide. When I run this code in Strategy Analyzer and look at the results in Summary, Executions and Trades sections I only see trades and summary results for the primary instrument. The trades for the secondary instrument, in this case Apple, don't seem to show up.

    Have I made an error in my code or is there some other problem? My code is shown below.

    protectedoverridevoid Initialize()
    {
    Add(PeriodType.Minute,
    3);
    Add(
    "AAPL", PeriodType.Minute, 1);
    }
    protectedoverridevoid OnBarUpdate()
    {
    if (CurrentBars[0] <= BarsRequired || CurrentBars[1] <= BarsRequired || CurrentBars[2] <= BarsRequired)
    return;
    if (BarsInProgress == 0)
    {
    EnterLong();
    }
    if (BarsInProgress == 2)
    {
    EnterLong();
    EnterLong(0, 100, "BUY MSFT");

    I think I figured out my problem. I had the entries per direction set to 1. When I increase this value, I start to see the other trades from the secondary insturment.

      Hello,

      Thanks for the update - that would likely be the case. As long as you're using the correct BarsArrayIndex in your entry methods, the orders should processed to that series.
