Hello,

I've searched around but couldn't find a solution on this. I'm backtesting cryptocurrencies, like Bitcoin, which is possible to buy a fraction of a share, let's say 0.06 Bitcoin in a trade. I couldn't find an option to set this on Wealth-lab.

Is it possible to set this?

Thanks

Hello,

Sorry, fractional number of shares cannot be purchased in WL.

For backtesting purposes you can divide the price data by a factor like 100 or 1000 to simulate fractional share value.Like this:
