AlgoZ entry and exit doubts

General
1

Hi,

I need some clarifications on AlgoZ.

I’ve a strategy EMA_Crossover. Here when I tried Backtesting, trades were taken weirdly. There are more Entry Short positions than Exits. Similarly Long positions.

My script is very simple. Enter at one cross over and exit at other cross over. I’m not sure why there are different number of entry and exits in Backtest result.

Here are my doubts:

  1. How do I set target profit for each trade?

  2. How to back test multiple symbols?

  3. How to force entry at open and exit at close?

I tried same algo on Amibroker and it worked fine without any issue.

Regards,

Ravikiran.

I think this is a more appropriate place to post this query:

In that blog I didn’t find answers… Here is what I found info from Zerodha Support.

  1. How do I set target profit for each trade?
    Manually set. Automation not directly possible with NEST. Or learn complete NEST Plus api and calculate it.(Not worth giving a try here… I’ll wait for Pi)
  2. How to back test multiple symbols?
    Not possible.
  3. How to force entry at open and exit at close?
    Not possible.(Hopefully Pi will have this option).
    And also I heard that programming is much better in Pi. Looking forward to trade on that.
