TradeStation EasyLanguage Error

[kneecapistanio]

Hi

I have been informed by my programmer that TS 8.3 is the most stable version to back-test strategies as there are known problems with versions 8.4 and 8.5. I have recently downloaded 8.6 but the results of my back-testing appears somewhat unreliable.

My question is that I need to translate my strategy to run on version 8.3 but some of the coding is not recognisable? Does anyone know a suitable replacement for the term 'isTradingDay' that can be used on version 8.3?

Condition = isTradingDay(JulianToDate(DateToJulian(date))) = 1

Any help would be appreciated.

Cheers

I have just checked on TS8.6 and "Istradingday" does not appear to be a valid standard function. I suspect that it is a custom function that has been created. If I am correct then you will need to export/inport that function from the original place. If you have already done that then try opening the function up - you may need to change the code within the function to make it backwards compatible.
