Performance of Trades for Prior Week

[cboat]

Is there a way to trade on minute bars. Yet to take the performance of my trades for the prior week. Currently when I take the Cumulative profits on every bar update. Now even though this works and is helpful I would rather look at my profits on a weekly basis.

Hello cboat,

Yes, this should be possible with custom programming. What you might be able to do is cumulate your daily profits for the week. The reference sample below helps with using these values and tracking them on a daily basis. You can use similar principles for weekly results.

I found that NT6 has a ProfitPerMonth function yet there is no way of tracking the profits on a weekly basis. Any other suggestions?

Unfortunately there aren't built in methods for tracking weekly performance. It would have to be custom programmed. You may consider hiring a 3rd party NinjaScript consultant to code this for you. A list is available here.

Is there a way to have the strategy only calculate the profits for the month once and month instead of on a daily basis?

Cboat,

If you need to work with these numbers in your strategy then this must be custom programmed.

When viewing backtesting results through the strategy analyzer you can specify performance by month, week, etc.

You can see a similar real time report for running strategies by right clicking on the running strategy (from strategy tab) > Strategy Performance > Real-Time performance > Periods tab.
