Post From: incorrect P/L in backtesting

That's right, I remember reading that section in the past but I couldn't find it this morning.

I use replay backtests as I'm using 10-min bars made up of 1-minute data, so bar based BT doesn't give accurate enough results.

I was substituting the "Drawdown" column for profit and loss where the stop was hit at open the next morning, and it's probably more accurate than the P/L column, but I don't think that's accurate enough to rely on it.
