Hi vvhg
Yes it would be good to be able to run monte carlo simulations of equity curves to then look at possible DD characteristics.
But hey that might be outside of the purpose of this and make it unecessarily complex?
As it stands it will do that if I just put the raw data in - and then I will get more. I am just being lazy perhaps.
Enjoy your weekend.
Actually it is possible (though for that there are better tools around), as you mentioned, just put in some made up raw data like 66% win you need to put in 2 winners and one loser and size them to your avg win or loss respectively. But I have to tell you that this engine is not built for that and doesn't take into account standard deviation, which is actually quite important in these calculations.
Let me find you a user friendly one: Here is an easy to use one, good to get a quick overview (but that doesn't take in to account standard deviation either). If you need sth more precise, I'd try and just google it.
i will go back and reread my posts and send ya a PM of the feature requests. i guess then just post the list to the thread and we can keep a running updated list?
dont believe anything you hear and only half of what you see
here is what im getting with the newest importer version:
the imported trades are highlighted:
- the trades are not incremental in arrow 1
- i know its small but the dates are not being formatted like normal
- the entry and exit fields are not getting formatted correctly by the journal
- im not sure what happened with the 6E trade there but i know that the TF trades were taken by using market orders for opening and market orders for closing while the 6E trade was market for the open and limit order for the close.. im not sure if this makes a diff on importing, but it def looks diff in the trade list in NT so maybe this could be an issue..
- the comments are being posted instead of left blank for the users own input..
- the importing is killing all of the data that the journal uses to work for new imports as well as old trades..
im thinking that the importer might be writing more than just values to the cells maybe?

Found it. The error was caused by the (useless) risk of ruin calculations on overview to the right of visible range. Deleted them. If you don't want to migrate just delete that block....see pic:
