			<description><![CDATA[<p>After a couple of days of playing with this nice utility (that I found on Google by accident) I must say that it exceeded my expectations.</p><p>At first, it looked too rigid and unflexible, and that it was intended for non-programmers to experiment with it, but after a while, I can see its advantages in playing with new trading ideas.</p><p>The most brilliant aspect of this product, is that everything is simple, and everything is shown on one screen. No need to switch tabs or views.<br />Also, another important aspect, is that every time I change one of the parameters, the profit curve is updated instantly - this is great!</p><p>I will not repeat some of my suggestions from previous posts, and will not repeat stuff that I noticed was posted by some others ( like export journal to CSV and like date filter and like black background theme ) but, as of now, I think that some things need to be done:</p><p>1. The reliability of the backtesting engine - in terms of accurately immitating entry/exit orders - is in question. This is of course only my opinion, based on what I have learned on the product so far - it may be rock solid, but I think this will require some work.</p><p>2. This is somewhat related to #1 - when I build a strategy, I would like to carefully inspect the results on a chart. The charting component requires some work, especially the position related markers. It is too cluttered now, and if there are more than one entry/exits on the same bar, it was very difficult for me to understand what happened, and by what order</p><p>3. Since this tool is designed for testing only, and not for trading (and smartly so) - It is important to provide a detailed description of each indicator (with formula, or code) somewhere either on the software itself, or on the help pages. Personally, I am familiar with most of the indicators, and can write the formulas for them, but if I need to replicate the FSB system into some other scripting language, it is crucial that I do it EXACTLY as it was implemented on FSB.</p><p>All-in-all - I can&#039;t wait to see how this will evolve.<br />Its a nice concept, well done guys.</p>]]></description>
