1. a data period is selected 2. a strategy is selected and for the time frame i'm testing. 3. a fixed forward and back test period is selected. It will run, and look like it's doing something, but the end results are just 0. when i look into the vote line before running SW, it will show proper voting at the bottom of OT. I have even tried different strategies to see if that was the issue. Does anyone have any ideas on what i maybe missing? Thanks, Shawn | ||

1. Using OT2012 Pro RT with a RT profile with the same profile and settings as used previously. 2. Think the problem arose subsequent to PR 2K (I always do the PR’s as soon as posted) and I have notes from a run I did 5/12/2012. At that time the program updated as expected. | ||

i followed the instruction in the video, to "just copy" a profile i want to duplicate, then use SW on the copied version. I suppose i really just copied a RT profile. I'll try it, and see what happens. thx, shawn | ||

1. Strategywizard.otd (or the .otd file that you specifically named) in the C:\Program Files\Nirvana\OT2012\StrategyWizard folder. 2. Profile in the C:\Program Files\Nirvana\OT2012\Profiles folder. 3. Strategy in the C:\Program Files\Nirvana\OT2012\Strategies folder. 4. If the strategy contains any VBA indicators, systems, or stops. They are in the C:\Program Files\Nirvana\OT2012\VBA folder in subfolders. Compress them into a zipped file & attach it here or email. Or if it's too big you can use a site like http://www.yousendit.com | ||

I have been using Strategy Wizard since it was fielded (2008?). However, I am not familiar with using a Test Profile. As stated earlier, I have used only the EOD and RT profiles. Would you consider emailing me the Test Profile you are using to test intraday, e.g. 15”, timeframes which does not produce zeros? I could use only the default strategies for starters to test on my setup. I do think Strategy Wizard is a very valuable tool and would like to be able to use it for intraday timeframes as well as EOD. Thanks . . . . | ||

So, I hope we can get some more info about Test Profile limitations. It might be useful for N to "officially" disallow SW operation with RealTime profiles, to help simplify matters. JMHO fwiw. | ||

I have created a new Test Profile as you suggested for testing intraday timeframes, and it appears functional!! And, I agree with Jim Dean’s suggestion that N provide more info about using the Test Profile in lieu of a RT profile for SW intraday testing. Thanks . . . . |
