Bernard and Tomasz - Here's a pointer to a tutorial on the Wealth-Lab
AnalyzeSeries functionality (which is what the Analysis Var tab in
Wealth-Lab Desktop displays the results of):
http://www.wealth-lab.com/cgi-bin/WealthLab.DLL/getpage?
page=TutorialAnalysisSeries.htm
The Monte Carlo simulations are just that for optimizing up to 9
variables simultaneously within a ChartScript.
Tomasz, in another posting you state: "Intra-day drawdowns are
calculated on single trade basis. A better method (covering equity
dips through all duration of the test) will be included in the next
update." Are you referring here to the Equity Drop Ratio I discussed
in my article on the Wealth-Lab site? If not, you might want to
consider this also as a method of computing such Intra- or Inter-day
drawdown statistics.

alerts, one for the text of the TS, one for optimisation (I hope that
you will implement it in AB soon), an other one called MonteCarlo (I
guess it is to make more complex optimisation using the Monte Carlo
method), the last one is called Analysis Var but I don't know what it
is.

including Risk-Adjusted Return (RAR). This is a standard system
evaluation metric that divides a risk measurement by the annualized
rate of return. You could use maximum drawdown as the risk
measurement, but other measures (volatility, standard deviation,
etc.) would also work.
