o Portfolio-level Optimization engine fully supports all backtester features listed above
o User-defined objective function (optimization target)
o Upto 100 optimization parameters at once
o Blazing fast speed (10 year EOD, 100 symbols, 100 exhaustive opt. steps takes 25 seconds)*
o Exhaustive (full grid) optimization
o Non-exhaustive (smart) optimization using different evolutionary methods: (Particle Swarm Optimization), CMA-ES (Covariance Matrix Adaptation Evolutionary Strategy) with full source codes
o Optimizer open API allowing to developing custom smart optimizers
o Three-dimensional, OpenGL animated optimization charts for robustness analysis
* Validation
o Walk-Forward testing with user-definable start, end, step, anchored / non-anchored mode
o User definable target (objective) function
o Sliced in-sample / out-of-sample equity charts
o Symbol picking randomization via position score
o Price variation robustness testing via randomization of trade prices

Charting

o Object-oriented drawing tools (trend lines, rays, parallel lines, regression channels, fibonacci retracement, expansion, Fibonacci time extensions, Fibonacci timezone, arc, gann square, gann square, cycles, circles, rectangles, text on the chart,arrows, and more)
o Drag-and-drop indicator creation (just drag moving average over say RSI to create smoothed RSI)
o Live! parameters (change the indicator parameter using slider and see it updated live, immediatelly as you move the slider, great for visually finding how indicators work)
o All classic indicators included (ROC, RSI, MACD, OBV, CCI, MFI, NVI, Stochastics, Ultimate oscillator, DMI, ADX, Parabolic SAR, TRIN, Advance/Decline line, Accumulation/Distribution, TRIX, Chaikin oscillator and many more)
o Referencing multiple symbol data in one chart (relative performance charts, spreads, composites, artificial data)
o Chart Playback (Bar Replay tool allows to playback charts using historical data, great tool for learning and paper-trading)
o Symbol linking
o Interval linking
o Instant switching of intervals (on-the fly time compression without need to download compressed data)
o Excel-like, multiple chart sheets for easy switching between various indicator setups
o All possible intervals supported
+ Yearly, quarterly, monthly, weekly and daily charts
+ Intraday charts
+ N-minute charts
+ 5-second and 15-second charts - Pro version
+ N-tick charts - Pro version

Real-time features

o Multiple data-source support (you are not locked to one data vendor, you can connect to eSignal, IQFeed, Interactive Brokers, QCharts, CQG, among others)

o Open Data API (allowing building plugins to connect to any 3rd party data source)
o DDE plugin (allows connection to any data source that features DDE server)
o Data saved locally (real time and backfill data are saved locally so you can keep old data even if you unsubscribe from data source)
o Scans, explorations, backtest can be run on live real-time data
o Automatic "active symbol list" maintenance (AmiBroker automatically subscribes/unsubscribes symbols from 3rd party source using FIFO (first-in-first-out) approach upto the limit of your RT subscription, saving you from headache of maintaining active symbol lists)
