Ah ok the check marks are independent, then it makes sense.

This is a very good idea.

I'll see how to implement it.

I have been using the 'Collection' feature for a few days and the results are most impressive. The filters do a great job and I am building a collection of excellent results.

This is far better than I expected to see when the project was first started.

Thanks Popov!!

I test pretty carefully..... mainly because I have been scorched more than a few times hahahahaha

My best plan is to set the parameters to nil, use 35% OOS, and let the thing work until I get the Equity line that I like.

Sometimes we get fooled as to the relevance of all the ratios when what we really want is to see equity steadily climbing without big drawdowns and stagnant periods.

The best numbers will not guarantee profits.

FSB Pro is set up to seek the highest net income, my impression is that I can let it run until I get what I want in the way of drawdown and net profit and rather than restrict it in its process, I let the generator do whatever it wants until I see results that I feel I can use.

Then I check the journal and the charts to look for problems. If that is ok, I start to do some forward and backward testing by manipulating the dates. That is the moment of truth. I think we will soon have the facility for walk forward testing built into FSB Pro and that will be a huge time saver for me.

I have attempted in the past to preset the controls and found that I missed the best solutions; my best preset, or, should I say, my favorite preset, is the OOS.

Sometimes it is easy to get hung up on complexities and statistical dances and thereby defeat the power of the generator.

I do not use the optimizer.

I can tell OOS performance from the equity chart, I guess I am more adapted to eyeballing the chart than examining the numbers.

What about the SL and TP, do you use any? Or just leave generator's creativity?

I look in the repository at the pics.

ok
