Portara - Robustness Testing & Strategy Optimisation Using Data
Traders often try to use their backtester — personal code or software application — to create ways in which to test system models for robustness. However, perhaps there is a much easier solution? Perhaps manipulating the data itself, rather than the code, is a far easier way in which to draw result comparisons. In this simple video you will see the creation of alternative data sets based on:
- Increasing and decreasing the volatility across a commodity or portfolio of commodities
- Cropping intraday bars from the beginning and end of your daily session
- Randomising the opens and closes of the daily…

Portara - Discussion on SOB (Start of Bar) versus EOB (End of Bar) intraday txt CSV backtest data
Some backtesters require data in SOB (Start of Bar) format where others require an EOB (End of Bar) approach. This video contrasts the difference between the two sets of valid timestamp models — for the data importer interfaces that backtesters contain — and researchers inevitable come across. With Portara, you can make backtesting choices for any style of backtester you currently work with — even customized self-designs. Make sure you UNDERSTAND fully the data you are working with.
The worst case scenario is to purchase data from an unknown supplier only to find 'surprises' later when you reach the data…

What is an Omnibus account and how does it work?
http://www.cqg.com/Docs/OmnibusTrading.pdf
Omnibus accounts, set up by clearing firms for non-clearing firms, are used to funnel orders from individual accounts at a non-clearing firm into one omnibus account at the clearing firm.

In this way, customers of the non-clearing firm are not disclosed to the clearing firm.
Non-clearing firms are able to manage risk separately from the omnibus account and can have multiple
omnibus accounts with a range of clearing firms.A separate omnibus environment is created. The…

Ladder Size
I think it's version 18x12x8063 that I upgraded to today. Doesn't allow the same smaller size ladders.
Previous version was 18x10x8032.
Is there an option somewhere to change to a smaller font?
Or how do I roll back to previous software version?

Custom Study
I am creating a custom study. Basically, I want to identify Bar X... where X is marked when Range(@) > MA((Range(@)[-1]),Exp,10); now what I want to do is WHEN the bar range exceeds the range of the prior 10 bars, I want to Draw a line from the 50% line. I know I am drawing today the Open and Close of the Bar X via 2 curves close/open(@)[0] when Range(@) > MA((Range(@)[-1]),Exp,10); ... but again, how do I say @ 50% of that bars price, I want to draw another curve? it is unclear from all your docs...

Thank you

How Do I Chart?
To create a chart, left click on the ‘Chart’ toolbar button in the upper left corner of your CQG screen. A chart appears. In the lower left corner of the chart is a blinking cursor.

You can use the following Historical time frames: Daily (,D), Weekly (,W), Monthly (,M), Quarterly (,Q), and Annually (,A).

Chart overlay question
When I was on another charting platform, I could do this ZF5-/ZN3 and I could get both on the same chart. Can I do something like this on CQG Q trader or CQG Integrated Client? Thanks

Group Alerts
Let's say I create a family of say ten alerts for market EP. Is there an easy way for me to copy this family of alerts and use it for a new market ENQ, without having to manually enter each alert? The copy feature does not allow this.
