Equity Final doesn't make sense

[landifrancesco]

Good morning.
First of all, thank you for this library! It's very well made.

I have a noob question, which I am trying to answer alone but I can't.
After doing a lot of backtest, whatever amount of trade I take and whatever amount of wins I have the equity is still almost flat.
What am I doing wrong??

bt = Backtest(csv_low, Setup, cash=100000, commission=0.00002, spread=0.0001,
exclusive_orders=False, finalize_trades=False)

Equity Final [$] 100000.06128
Equity Peak [$] 100000.06763
Commissions [$] 0.00073
Return [%] 0.00006

Thank you for your time!

The likely issue is your trade size (number of shares/units) being too small. Check your self.buy/self.sell.

Thank you! I will definitely look into this and close the discussion if fixed!
