[FEATURE REQUEST] Strategy backtest completed callback

[login_dejavu]

Hello guys,

would it be possible to add new virtual method which will be executed when Backtesting is completed.

protected override void OnBacktestingCompleted(TradeCollection trades) { /* single*/ }
protected override void OnBacktestingCompleted(TradeCollection[] trades) { /* or multiple/optimization/etc */ }

// OR        

protected override void OnBacktestingCompleted(SystemPerformance performance) { /* single */ }
protected override void OnBacktestingCompleted(SystemPerformance[] performance) { /* or multiple/optimization/etc */ } 

I know I can get almost but not the same with code below (but issue here that I never will get last closed trade which was closed by NT by On Session Close because of End of historical period):

if (CurrentBars[BarsInProgress] == BarsArray[BarsInProgress].Count-2) {} 

So please if you could add this feature into your backlog would be very great.

Thanks!

Hi login_dejavu, thanks for your post.

I will submit a feature request and report back here with a tracking ID. We appreciate your input. We do have the IsInStrategyAnalyzer property and with the detection of the State.Terminated one can know when a backtest is over.

Hi Chris,

I didn't know about IsInStrategyAnalyzer, checked, it works as expected. So I guess you can ignore my feature request then. I understand that maybe in terms of code it is not much to add, but with all documentation/etc... to be production ready can be to much worry.


Thank you!
