Hello dear support! Nice to ask you again =)
So, how to put Cumulative profit graph (or other result's graph) in the chart in Strategy Analyzer?

Hello Alexstox,

Thank you for your post.

The Cumulative Profit is available under Graphs Tab in the Strategy Analyzer.

Hello Alexstox,

Thank you for your post.

The Cumulative Profit is available under Graphs Tab in the Strategy Analyzer.

Thank you, I knew that. I just want to put in the chart. Well, it's possible only via script. Thanks

I tried to create an indicator, but I don't know how to associate indicator with strategy. This lead to error in indicator:

Plot0.Set(Performance.AllTrades.TradesPerformance.Points.CumProfit);

How can I represent CumProfit on the price chart with ScaleJustification=overlay and autoscale=false?

I tried with

DrawLine("MyCumProfit"+CurrentBar, false, 1, Performance.AllTrades.TradesPerformance.Percent.CumProfit, 0, Performance.AllTrades.TradesPerformance.Percent.CumProfit, Color.Gray, DashStyle.Dot, 1);

But it y-sclaed and when want to see chart you don't see profit graph.

Hello alexstox,

You may want to just plot from within the strategy for the easiest way to do something like this so you do not have to worry about passing variables from your Strategy to your Indicator which can be difficult.

Here is an example of how you can Plot from within a strategy that you may view.

The problem is I want to use it in Strategy Analyzer =))) And there is attention in your sample

It will NOT work for charts in the Strategy Analyzer during backtesting, but it will work on real-time charts.

Hello alexstox,

Nothing comes to mind to easily be able to do what you looking for. Drawing objects in a Strategy will be on the same scale and writing the values to a file in the Strategy Analyzer can run into issue with file accessing.

Is this something that you want visually? If you use the DrawText() method you should be able to Display the Cumulative Profit when your trades enters or exits.
