Share New Research 
Hi everyone,
I'm new to QuantConnect and I'm getting to grips with its features; I'm mostly making mean reversion strategies and it's going great! However, when I backtest these algorithms, I cannot find my exposure. Usually when I research others' strategies online, they have a percentage showing the amount of time out of the total time they were in the market, which can often be an important factor when deciding how effective a strategy is. Can QuantConnect do this and if so, how? Appreciate any feedback you can offer,
Kind Regards,
Louis Szeto
Hi Soodocode
We have a visual chart that can be activated for exposure in backtest environment for visual tracking. For precise tracking, we suggest setting up a variable to track that in the algorithm to aid trading decisions. Please check the attached example. Note that it also includes overnight and non-trading day periods.
