Hi all,
We have a few systems we offer that pyramids into positions. So it might take an initial entry of 1 contract, add another, then 2 and so on. When running the Strategy Analyzer or even the Trade Performance report to review these systems, we notice that the number of trades is calculated based on each individual entry. If a full position trade consisted of 3 separate entries, NT seems to count that as 3 trades, with a corresponding profit/loss for each lot entry.
This is not horrible, but it does screw up the largest winning trade/largest losing trade calculations and we need them to be aggregated to run some deeper analysis on our data. Does that make sense? Is there any way to configure or change how that is calculated and displayed in NT?
Let me know, thank you.
