Hello Quants,
a couple of questions on the orders:
Question #1
When I run a backtest on the cloud I get the order list here below.
- 1a) I see there is a column “tag”. How can I add some information in the tag column form my python/c# script?
- 1b) Can I actually add more columns? E.g a myColumn column after the Tag one. It would be nice to be able to do it from the script strategy of course.
Question #2
Is it possible to obtain this table in HTML or even plain text when submitting a backtest on the cloud from lean cli?

Hi Nico Xenox,
1.a Understood. I will check the docs closely if I can SET the tag to print a value I want to (e.g. current amount of stocks held or average price)
1.b chart and plot I know of course, but I want to see some extra data aside the trades. It is SO useful to find out logic issues. I think count of stocks held and average price should be even added by default (wont work for forex/crypto but it could print the total amount of cash instead of amount of stocks).
2. Thanks I saw it now.
cheers,
Paul
