Topic: Walk Forward Optimization vs Validator

Hi, in the Reactor, there are two options for Walk Forward:
- Walk Forward Optimization
- Walk Forward Validation

What's the difference between these two options?

Re: Walk Forward Optimization vs Validator

Walk Forward Validation

It calculates all Walk Forward segments.
If the final strategy passes the Acceptance Criteria the Reactor (Validator) sends the original strategy to the  Collection.

Walk Forward Optimization

If the strategy passes the Acceptance Criteria after the final segment if it shows better performance than the original strategy, the Reactor (Validator) accepts the new strategy parameters.

Walk Forward Optimization changes the original strategy parameters with the ones produced by the optimization of the last Walk Forward segment.
