first update: CS3 crashes at the very end of optimizing:
![http://s4.postimage.org/hvr6r.jpg](http://s4.postimage.org/hvr6r.jpg)
and it really is a CPU hog, didn't expect it to be so intense. The strategy:
Market: EURJPY 15 Minutes
Spread in pips: 4
Swap Long in pips: 1
Swap Short in pips: -1
Commission per lot at opening and closing in pips: 0
Slippage in pips: 0
Maximum open lots: 1
Entry lots: 1
Adding lots: 1
Reducing lots: 1
Intrabar scanning: Not accomplished
Interpolation method: Pessimistic scenario
Ambiguous bars: 0
Tested bars: 2331
Balance: 311 pips (10327.37 JPY)
Minimum account: -8 pips (9991.58 JPY)

[Closing Point of the Position]

Bollinger Bands
The bar closes below the Lower Band
Smoothing method - Simple

Added the complete error message as well.
Other thoughts: only 2 logic conditions seem to be profitable ("The bar closes above the Projected Y" and "The bar is higher than the Projected Y"). In the crossover CS3 there has to be a cross between the spline and a MA, right? Why not between 2 splines?
edit:
it crashes if more than 1 parameter is being optimized.
