Strategy Analyzer: Summary vs Analysis % differences?

[Artorias]

Hello,

I've noticed a difference between two values in Strategy Analyzer:

• The "Total Net Profit" in the "Summary %" section
• The final value of "Cum Net" in the chart found in the "Analysis %" section

These two metrics seem to represent the same thing (total net profit), but show different results. Is this normal and what explains this difference?
Which measure to look at for the net performance of a backtest?

Why are my strategy results showing positive in one section but negative in another, and sometimes even opposite between sections ?

Thanks for your help!

Hello Artorias,

I'm not certain that I am understanding.

The Total net profit in the summary display is showing 0,94%, what I would assume is the last period in the analysis display is showing 0,94%, the graph of the analysis is also showing the last data point as between 0,88% and 1,17% and visually appears to be right at 0,94%.

Can you clarify what values you are seeing that are different?

[Artorias]

I'm trying to understand why the Total Net Profit is at -$15,812 in the negative while other categories seem positive, and the 0.94% in the summary doesn't have a minus sign (-) but is displayed in red. Some backtesting I've conducted shows results with completely different percentages.

Hello Artorias,

Oh apologies I overlooked that.

May I confirm you are on the latest release 8.1.4.2?

Are you able to reproduce this behavior using the SampleMACrossover?

I tried to reproduce but was not able. Below is a link to a video.

With the same steps in the video is the behavior different?

I have successfully uninstalled and reinstalled 8.1.4.2 and it works perfectly. Thank you very much for the active support of the platform.
