 For example, if we start the test on a local performance high, then the following losing period may cause a significant drawdown. For example, if we start the test on a local performance high, then the following losing period may cause a significant drawdown.

-    * **Randomize backtest starting bar** - will randomize the starting bar of the test. +    * **Randomize backtest starting bar** - searches for a following opposite direction signal and starts the test from there. It causes the backtest to begin with an opposite trade. This simulation aims to identify cases where initiating with an opposite trade compromises strategy performance. If the count of the shadowed opposite orders is lower than the selected count of tests, Monte Carlo uses a random starting bar.
