Hello junkone,

Thank you for your note.

Yes this would be possible to code in the NinjaScript editor under Control Center>New>NinjaScript Editor>PerformanceMetrics. I have provided a link to the helpguide below as well as a couple samples written by Jessica and Jim.

After you've created a custom metric you to get these to show up in strategy analyzer you need to go to ControL Center>Tools>options>General and select the ones you want displayed.

Please let us know if you need further assistance.

the examples you have provided are row metrics. I want column metrics as I want to evaluate each trade for specific criteria to optimize it.

Hello junkone,

It would not be possible to create custom columns in the strategy analyzer window, however I will put in a feature request requesting this.

For the time being you could have the strategy print this information to the output window, or create a bool in the strategy which would only initiative trades if above/below channel, then compare the results.

Please let us know if you need further assistance.
