But I am unable to insert the algo name (which is the first column of testtrades.csv file) into this Simulated backtest run. I wonder if someone could advise if this is possible? I also noticed that the simulated backtest produced very similar metrics (such as PF, Win, UI etc) but SR is noticeably different. Could this be a bug? Thanks

Can you post the script here ? Perhaps reading the algo name from your testtrades.csv file is not even coded in the "new" Simulate.c and you need to add the code in order to do so ..
