Haven’t had a chance to fully watch this webinar yet. It’s Alan Clement and he goes through some advanced reporting tools within Amibroker. His presentation starts at the 11.40 mark…

Thanks for the link Nick.

It’s a good video. Well worth looking at.

@39:40 I couldn’t help but notice the reference to Craig’s name in the folder list for the AFL CBT code….. and the reference to the selection bias CBT example.

I registered to the website…. interested to see what’s in their forums https://www.amibroker-canada.org/

I’m hoping there might be some links to the custom Reports AFL that Alan uses/refers to in the video Nick posted.

I tried to code up the ‘Portfolio Equity vs Index Benchmark code…. but the AFL text in the video is a little too small/blurry and I’ve got a few errors/incorrect characters which is stopping it from working correctly.

Code:

// Custom Equity Chart

Compounding = True;
SetChartOptions(1, chartShowDates|chartLogarithmic);

WhiteBackground = GetChartBkColor() == 16777272;
HighlightColor = IIf(WhiteBackground, colorBlack, colorWhite);

FinalEquity = C;
PlotColor = ColorBlend(colorPaleGreen, HighlightColor);
SetGradientFill(colorLightOrange, colorPaleGreen);

IndexBuyandHold = StaticVarGet(“~HCBTIndexBuyandHold”);
IndexTicker = StaticVarGet(“IndexTicker”);

Title = “Equity = $” + NumToStr(FinalEquity, 1.0);

Plot(FinalEquity, “Portfolio Equity”, PlotColor, styleGradient | styleLine, Null, Null, 0, -1);

if (LastValue(IndexBuyandHold) != 0)
{
Plot(IndexBuyandHold, “Index”, HighlightColor, styleThick);
Title +- ” Benchmark ” + IndexTicker + ” – $” + NumToStr(IndexBuyandHold, 1.0);
}

I think my typo might be coming from this line (line 23), as I can’t quite make out all the characters properly.

Code:

Title +- ” Benchmark ” + IndexTicker + ” – $” + NumToStr(IndexBuyandHold, 1.0);
