      [amibroker] Re: Automated BacktestingHi 
      dingo,You wrote below about Optimization:>I should point 
      out that according to most of the knowledgeable >sources that you 
      should only optimize once for a range of dates that will include bull 
      and bear periods and then do a series of backtests "out of sample" to 
      find out if your formula is "robust".  That's the hard 
      part!>  > dI think Leo may be referring, in his 
      Post,  to an Optimization technique called "Walkforward 
      Validation", which is what some people recommend and prefer.  
      It's another option to handle bull and bear years.  As you say, 
      no matter what technique, it's not easy :)Bill>
