Back testing results??
#1
Hi!

I've been developing my own system with a backtester, and I just can't understand the results that it reports.

For example, on the bottom on the "Roundtrip" section it shows that my strategy took 3 trades:

Entry at (UTC)    Exit at (UTC)    Exposure    Entry balance    Exit balance    P&L    Profit
2016-06-12 00:00    2016-06-14 06:00    2 days    0.987    1.052    0.06    6.56%
2016-06-16 01:00    2016-06-22 15:00    7 days    1.039    1.255    0.22    20.81%
2016-08-22 22:00    2016-09-15 13:00    24 days    1.240    1.552    0.31    25.19%

So, entry balance for first trade was 0.987BTC and exit for the last was 1.552BTC, which would make about 55% of profit in total.

But, on the Backtest Result- section it says that:

start balance    1.00000 BTC
final balance    1.13575 BTC
simulated profit 13.57521%

Why do these reports differ so much; other says that the profit was about 55%, and other 13,57%??? :-o
