Portfolio Trading
Applying a trading strategy to a number of financial instruments simultaneously offers several advantages:
• Portfolio diversification could produce more consistent results
• Infrequent trading opportunities will be more common across a number of symbols
• Portfolio strategies can maximize profit and minimize risks by allocating the capital within a portfolio dynamically, based on each instrument's performance. Keep in mind that trading financial instruments involves substantial risk of loss and is not suitable for all investors
• Portfolio strategies can enter, scale-in, scale-out, or exit positions based on the overall portfolio performance
• Portfolio strategies are generally more robust and less susceptible to over-optimization

A dynamic portfolio strategy is more then simply a collection of separate strategies, and takes in to account a number of additional factors, such as capital limits, entry orders priority, money and risk management, and overall portfolio performance.



Portfolio Backtesting
Portfolio backtesting offers a number of advantages:
• Backtesting a strategy on a single instrument may not produce enough trades to distinguish a pattern from a coincidence
• Backtesting a strategy on a number of instruments is more likely to reveal any shortcomings and helps to avoid over-optimization
• A robust strategy is likely to demonstrate consistent profitability across various instruments
• By backtesting on a diverse portfolio, the instruments most suitable for the particular trading strategy can be selected
True Dynamic Portfolio Backtesting
True Dynamic Portfolio Backtesting simulates the actions of a real trader by taking in to account the overall portfolio considerations dynamically, during the evaluation of each bar. Portfolio equity and the available capital are dynamically evaluated for every instrument, on every bar, in order to determine the amount available to be invested. When available capital is insufficient to enter all of the trading opportunities that arise simultaneously, the best opportunities are selected according to user-customizable criteria. In addition to the performance of a particular instrument, portfolio drawdown or other portfolio performance aspects can be taken in to consideration when making entry and exit decisions.
