Limits that can change a result

The 379 USD Professional licence is not the 499 USD UltimatePack. Data-provider coverage and symbol adjustments remain your responsibility; report export format is unverified here.

Do not infer a fill model or contract lifecycle from a chart symbol alone. Historical coverage, data adjustment, sessions, time zones, commissions, position sizing and execution settings should be written down with each run. The same entry rule can produce different results under different conventions.

A test task you can reproduce

Test the same signal with a one-bar delay, compare gross/net results and inspect position sizing and commission settings before batch optimization.

This is a suggested acceptance task, not a provider test that we performed. Save source code or rule settings, the data identifier, parameters and export. If the tool cannot accept a synthetic dataset, use an explicitly identified historical slice and record what cannot be independently controlled.

Official evidence

AmiBroker current order page — Professional new-user licence 379 USD perpetual, 24 months included updates. Standard 299 and UltimatePack 499 are different products. Data/add-ons not assumed included.
AmiBroker backtesting guide — AFL rules, execution-price variables and high/low range checking. Account settings, delays and commissions determine the model.
AmiBroker products — Stock, futures and Forex analysis with portfolio backtesting; Standard/Professional differ. No options-chain/assignment workflow established here.

What this profile does not establish

Published features do not establish current uptime, execution quality, predictive value, suitability or profitability. Trial limits and paid data can differ from the selected software licence. We have not opened accounts, purchased licences or run the named tool’s native imports/exports. The source register makes that boundary explicit.
