In the program for backtest is it just using a 1:1 ratio or taking into consideration the exchange ratios etc?

For example NOB could be 2:1 or 5:3 etc, how does the program recognize this or I need to enter it as 2*/ZN-/ZB etc or 5*/zn-3*/zb. thanks soo much!!!!

You can manually build any spread with any ratio for legs and use all tools like optimize, backtest etc.
