Details

Full description

Re-run an existing backtest with a different storage profile. Re-uses the original run's strategy, revision, dates, initial_cash, fee_pct and slippage_pct, and queues a new run. It does NOT carry over sweep combo params, overrides, or benchmark_symbol — re-running a sweep child or an overridden run executes the strategy's saved config instead.

Required Inputs

backtest_idstringID of the backtest to re-run

Optional Inputs

collect_diagnosticsbooleanCapture per-bar condition diagnostics on the re-run. Defaults to true because this is the recovery path for a run that lacked them -- explain_bar and get_condition_timeline need it. Refused on runs above the diagnostics size ceiling; narrow the date range instead.
storage_profilestringStorage profile for the re-run. 'backtest_diagnostic' retains indicators, condition data and bar events; 'backtest_minimal' retains none of them.
