Commission/fee in TradingView Backtest.

A quick note about the commission/fee

We do not recommend using “Percentage” to calculate the fee. We have tested different Bots in many months and the “Percentage” fee in the backtest has never reflected the fee in reality. So we have concluded that the Tradingview backtest with “percentage” as a fee is misleading. At least what we have seen from our tests.

We suggest: To make things even easier to verify, place a fixed commission of x dollars per order. You will then be able to clearly see a link between the $ value and the number of trades in your list.
