Bars in Trade vs # of Bars Analysis Window (2)

[Dixon]

Hi,

I'm just having the same question than in this unanswered and closed topic:

Bars in Trade vs # of Bars Analysis Window

Porfolio Backtester Interface Reference long BarsInTrade bars spent in trade (counting starts from 0) Note however that the value of zero is available only when trade is just opened in "low-level" approach, so normally you would see numbers >= 1 (all other reporting in AB remains as it was, so enter today and exit tommorrow counts as 2-bar trade) I came across this documentation in the manual. My question is why does the analysis window show 2 bars when it was only 1 bar in trade, I am s…

If I buy today at open and sell tomorrow at open analysis window counts 2 bars where the holding period was just 1 day.
