Simulation bugs and updates.  ( I will be showing a video of the simulation on my site, so please make it look cool)

Bad symbols page

These symbols must be removed from simulations before testing as they have stock splits or consolidations.

Simulate

•   Precision Stop (6-12)
•   Precision Stop (101 Vola)
•   Donchian  { box showing days }

Then indicator generator settings underneath as you have it, but all in one large box with room for 2 or 3 more signals to be added.

Version 1 (High priority before code swop)

1. Draw-downs 2nd and 3rd are not working.

2. Rename Para signal to" Precision Stop (6-12) "

3. The part where the signal is shown ( under where it says "simulate") can be made taller as more signals will be added later. You can type " Precision Stop (101 Vola) " underneath the other signals, even though we are not using it just yet.

4. Hide the top left box ( but keep the functions ( see photo )

5. Hide the other white box on the middle left ( see photo )

6. Hide the 4 white boxes Max open trades, Max closed trades, New trades opened, Stopped out trades ( see photo )

7. Both of these can be put in a tab hidden from view but viewable if we need.

8. Kelly used tick box to be made yellow

9. When Kelly is used, the Risk variable cell should grey out immediately and the word inside the box should read "Kelly used"

10. Indicator generator settings display should be in a white box so as to stand out a bit more.

11. The big ugly red - blue box showing net long exp or net short exp can be made to look like the other boxes. If you copy the format of the gearing used cell but make it pink when short and light blue (cyan) when long and the number underneath in the same format, also the date and trades opened can be done in the same way.

12. All the outputted numbers inside the orange lines on the photo can be put into the same format neat little boxes used in risk, gearing and date etc. They stand out much better then when just place onto the grey background.

Version 2 (do not do yet)

1. Trades reporting...The biggest winner Long and the Biggest winner short and the Biggest loser Long and the Biggest loser short should be displayed

2. Funky additions...ACGR ( Annualised compounded growth rate )

3. MAR ( Managed account report ) Calculated by dividing ACGR / Largest draw-down. Eg is average growth rate = 50% and max dd = 10% then MAR= 5

4. Both of these above need to get logged into the excel sheet. (You can just grab the last value present on the simulation one number only, do not need a daily array of those  When simulation is ended you can display them as highlighted green to show end result)

5.  

Real time display section changes...looks pretty good, nothing has gone wrong with it yet. I will add a few hundred stocks and see what happens.

Signals to monitor (change  para stop) to Precision Stop (6-12)

what does the System message show? if its useful then you can leave it there.

hide count and volume under a tab with the other hidden bits.

This will make more space for the 4 tables below to be taller

Change points away % to Percent from stop and auto-sort them so the nearest one is at the top of the table

Changes for all tables ( change company to name)

change last to last bid

points away % to Percent from stop and auto-sort them so the nearest one is at the top of the table

sorted to show the most recent trade at the top

Long trades bugs.

I saw it bought BGBL.L today at 41.8p but the actual first traded price  was 42p so please check where it is getting this price. Yahoo finance seems to take the open as yesterdays close, which is wrong. We need to use the bid price.

Also the LAST column is not updating as I have been checking on yahoo and the bid is changing so is the last, but the price in the long trades window is not changing.

This price needs to use the last bid and last ask for the short column here>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

I closed the form and re-opened it and then the prices were correct ( but showed the last instead of the bid )

sorted to show the most recent trade at the top

Decimal places on trades to be 3

Date only shown if not traded today

The start from day counter is a bit confusing, it would be a bit simpler to have "Days back to compute"

I dont understand the start from day counter, but i see it is incrementing along as the program runs 48% = 48 start from.

The part that grabs the data can have a nice big box that goes green when it is finished.

When i got 500 stocks and added 70 days i got the error message when i pressed update on RT invalid argument of "14" is not a valid for index parameter name index

When i got 200 stocks with 100 days then pressed up date, only the top table got values inside it and nothing else happened in the lower cells.

NOTE i fucked up the excel sheet on the 200 stock test...so maybe its ok

Testing again with 150 stocks ( the top 150 in the list ) with (100 days indicator builder) data. not working, nothing appearred in the lower 4 tables

Run again with 100 stocks para multiple 1 x (300 days indicator builder), this time it worked

As above 100 stocks para 1 multiple x  (but grabbing 100 days indicator builder) FAILED AGAIN

So its the days used by the indicator builder causing the error.

Test again with 200 days failed

Seems to need 300 days for indicator builder or cant work, dunno why.

Retesting with more stocks. All of the uk stocks from the sheet = 348 dead symbols and  1146 live symbols wooo...

19.54pm started indicator builder CRASHED...

IT WORKS!

Tried again with 500 symbols, got 362 active ones.

chose 300 days and Para 0.75 this time it worked fine, no errors.

I messed up some of the earlier tests, with the excel sheet format header missing, or the number of days less than 300.

For now just fix it so it will get 300 days and not changeable. Add some note somewhere that there is a maximum of 350 stocks allowed.

It can probably take 400 - 600 but for speed of readiness, just limit it to 200.
