Exporting Order and Trade Records from a VeighNa Backtest

Summary

This short forum exchange explains how to save order and trade records produced by the VeighNa CTA backtester. The response says users can open the corresponding record table after a backtest, then use its context menu to save the displayed data as a CSV file. It answers whether the records must be saved through added strategy code or can be exported from the application interface: the described workflow uses the interface.

The document provides a practical backtest data-handling step, but no example output, code, or discussion of the CSV fields and their interpretation. It does not describe automated exports, file naming, or any analysis of trading results. The instructions apply to the referenced backtesting interface, so menu labels or availability may vary by version. This is a workflow note for examining backtest records, not evidence about a strategy’s performance.

Key ideas

• The backtester exposes order and trade records in separate table views.
• The displayed records can be saved as CSV through the table’s context menu.
• The described export process does not require adding a save step to strategy source code.
• The exchange does not explain CSV fields or automated export options.
• The workflow is specific to the referenced VeighNa backtesting interface.
