Hey,

I'm sure I'm missing something obvious here, but I've had a quick look at the MS help and manual and can't find an answer. Is it possible for the system tester to apply a mechanical system to all of the stocks in an index (XAO) and return results based on the TOTAL aggregated results for that system? In other words, I don't want results for each security, but a set of results for the system as a whole showing it's profitability (or lack thereof).

I'd be very surprised if this wasn't possible as MS's functionality has been impressive up to point and I would expect this to be a fairly common need for users.

Any help would be greatly appreciated,

AMSH

Unfortunately MetaStock does not do portfolio-style testing. It tests each security individually.
