    Getting the same results on System Tests? Look here for possible reasons.

    When I run a System Test, all of the results are the same no matter what I run it on?  Why?

     

    This is most likely caused by not actually being entered into the trades as they are signaled and you are gaining interest only on your initial equity.  Options to look at are the amount of initial equity, default size, etc.

     

    For example the default settings are 10,000 in Initial equity and the Default Size to be 100, which means to purchase 100 shares. If the security that you are testing is trading at more than 100 dollars, no shares can be bought, as there is not enough equity (100 x 100 = 10,000).
