Hi,
In the optimisation, how do each of the attributes work?
For the maximise "Winning trades" does it maximise the total number of winning trades? or is it trying to maximise the amount gained per trade?. Same question for when you minimise losing trades.
Also, when you have multiple criteria, is it ranked from most important at the top, or the most weighted at top to the least weighed at the bottom or are they all weighted the same?
I have had a look around and I cant find much information the how the criteria are calculated.
One other question, when doing a custom getfitness optimisation, is it possible to calculate maximum winning/losing consecutive trades? it appears in the trade statistics.
Thanks
Ian

Hi,
By Wining Trades it means those trades with a positive net profit, any trade that has a positive net profit will be considered a wining trade, and it will try to maximize that number.
Regarding multiple criteria, yes it's ranked from top to bottom and every criteria has equal weight, they get multiplied by each other and then divided:
You can calculate any metric you want to by using custom fitness, GetFitnessArgs gives you all data related to back test pass, and you can use that data to calculate any metric you want to.
