Commissions missing in backtest

[afshinmoshrefi]

I am trying to run backtest and optimizations on my ninja strategy. I cannot get the commissions to be added. I am using CL as my instrument.
When I run a backtest, the commission column is = 0.

to fix the issue I have

1) added commision to the instrument
2) gone to options and added comission for my brokerage and instrument


Both didn't make a different and commissions are still 0.

What else do I have to do?

Hi Opentick,

What instrument are you backtesting over?

Have you set the commission in Tools -> Options... -> Commissions?

May I have a screenshot of the Options window with the commission for this instrument showing?

To send a screenshot press Alt + PRINT SCREEN to take a screen shot of the selected window. Then go to Start--> Accessories--> Paint, and press CTRL + V to paste the image. Lastly, save as a jpeg file and send the file as an attachment.

Hello Opentick,

Thanks for the screenshots.

When you are running backtests through the Strategy Analyzer, NinjaTrader will use the Simulator engine.

Please add your commission level to the 'Stocks - Simulator ' commission spot.

Attached is a screenshot.
