v6.3 [Mar 6, 2012]
Combination Strategies and Backtesting
--(43341) A Strategy used more than once in a Combination Strategy but with different parameters will properly report results for each strategy instance. Previously, only one set of results were reported for all instances.
--(30461) When a runtime error occurs in a child Strategy, the strategy producing the error will be annotated in the Debug Window, but the Combination Strategy Simulation will continue normal processing.
-- (26522) When 'Apply dividends' is checked, an internal exception will no longer occur for certain performance visualizers (Equity Curve, By Strategy) in Combination strategy mode.
--(30248) When Benchmark Buy & Hold is enabled and the DataSet contains a symbol whose starting date doesn't fall in data range, an "Index Out of Range" exception will no longer occur for multi-symbol backtests.
-- (43339) GetExternalSymbol() will no longer produce an exception in Combination Strategies.
Data
-- (35657) Fidelity Symbol Management involving Quarantine and Delete Symbol is again operative.
-- (13937) Named Series are no longer lost depending on the data loading range selection. Previously, Named Series were present in the data when "Load All Data" is selected but were lost when switching to other data loading range settings like X bars, Y months/etc. This applies to all providers that register named series such as ASCII or TradingBlox.
Indicators
--(43491) Strategies that use Keltner Bands will no longer crash the application when attempting to execute on a symbol having zero bars.
Rules
--(43340) Bollinger Band rules no longer mix up specified series for CrossOver/Under and Above/Below tests. The change only affects strategies that specified series other than "Close".
--(44245) The period and smoothing parameters were reversed in the wizard generated code (e.g., 3, 10 instead of 10, 3) for the rule "Stochastic %D crosses above overbought level".
Index-Lab
--(26529) "A/D Volume" Index Definition is fixed for values occurring before the year 2003.
System
--(35658) Last run Strategy will no longer be moved to the bottom of the folder in the Open Strategy dialog.
-- (35659) Symbol Info Manager Tick specification will no longer change to the Decimal Preference each time a strategy is run on certain DataSets, such as ASCII.
Visualizers
--(30924) Distribution graphs for built-in visualizers (Profit Distribution, MAE/MFE, and By Period) won't intermittently fail to display the left-most distribution bar.
--(27744) Symbols containing a non-alphanumeric character will no longer cause the HeatMap to unload and display an error message.
WealthScript
--(26535) Named Series for External Symbols are again supported.
--(26534) The NamedSeries collection is no longer lost when calling Synchronize().
--(27742) The SystemPerformance.Bars list for Combination child strategies is no longer empty. Visualizer developers may need to recompile with a references to the updated WealthLab.dll for 6.3 compatibility.
--(26532) An exception that occurred on Named DataSeries when using math operations (*,-, , etc.) is fixed.
