The file you get
A .csv with one row per trade (Trade number, Instrument, Market pos.).
Steps
- Open the Strategy Analyzer and select the backtest.
- In the display, choose Trades.
- Right-click the grid > Export... and save as CSV.
Where to upload it
In the field 'Your platform report'.
Before you upload
- It does not matter whether Windows uses a comma or a dot as decimal mark: the audit detects the separator.
- For an account (Account Performance), the Trades tab is best. The Executions tab of CME futures (ES, NQ, CL, GC and their micros) is read too: each trade is priced with the contract's point value.
- A terminal set to French works as well: its column names are read.
- This file does not say how much capital you started with: type it in 'Starting balance'. Without it the audit assumes 10,000 and says so in the report.
- The file only holds closed trades: the floating drawdown inside each trade is reported as Not measured.
