A profile is a set of settings. It includes the Backtester, the Balance/Equity Chart, the Account and the Acceptance Criteria settings.

You select a profile in the Editor Page. When you change the selected profile, the program loads its settings and recalculates the strategy. The strategy result depends on the selected profile and its settings. A strategy keeps the name of its profile. When you open a strategy, FSB Pro checks the profile name and loads the particular settings before recalculating the strategy.
