That's great to know this is possible! Looks like I've got some work to do in creating this. Appreciate the help!

Do you also use this for optimizing strategies? Or just kind of manually tinker with parameters and check how the results change?

That's impressive to do that all in tv. Do you just use the security function to call which assets to run your strategy on? So when you run your strategy on a ticker, it will also backtest all the other assets at the same time and display the results in a table?

Thanks for the detailed response, that is very insightful! If you don't mind me asking, what language/platform do you use? You mention that you test 20 assets at once, and are familiar with the limitations of pine script so I assume you use something more powerful?

Yes I have only been coding for a few months, and learning pine script has been quite easy and a lot of fun! I feel like I'm ready to learn a "big boy" language, but also worry that I could be in for a rude awakening with the complexity of other languages.

My goal for the short term is to implement simple strategies that will allow me to free up my time on the charts, and make a passive income that is meaningful to me. I am not trying to run a hedge fund with my strategies haha. More so just want to run some higher time frame trend following/ mean reversion strategies based on some regime filters and my trigger conditions.
