When testing a strategy (while the test is running) the first number should be the current profit in pips.
With one script I get the following problems:
1)
The profit is negative while the red bar is on the left
2)
The profit does not match the balance/equity curve of the strategy at all

This does not happen with similar strategies, though.
Is there a known bug?

Now I got this one:

Ü2 compiling.............. assets..
BackTest: Ü2 portfolio 2011..2013
Profit 441$ MI 17$ DD 102$ Capital 631$
Trades 645 Win 51% Avg -0.1p Bars 1312
AR 171% PF 1.04 SR 0.69 UI 10.3% Error 20%
Time 00:01:10
The average trade profit seems wrong to me...

It is sort of difficult to comment the performance of an unknown strategy, so I can not tell why you got the results that you got.

I would guess that your strategy trades different assets, has a slightly negative expectancy of average 0.1 pips loss per trade, but still achieves a profit due to different margins or different pip costs of the assets.

This makes sense, thank you.
I will have to check my strategy.
