Always treat others with respect and kindness, even if you disagree with them. Avoid making personal attacks or insulting others, and try to maintain a civil and constructive tone in your discussions.

Well, that was surprising to me. It doesn't show zero for BCC=0

There is a work around. You can check the "Signal Values" and run backtest and download the report. Something I have not checked, but I think is how it works, the signal value goes to zero, and the trade is made the next day.

Also, could someone advise what the ""2" and "-1" do in the command imports(0,BCC,2,-1)? I use imports(0,BCC,0,0) but I use gprc(0) in the imports field.
