Here's one idea..
I was interested in considering the effectiveness of my 'PositionScore' specification a little while back.
What I did was run repeated dummy optimizations with random ranking to
generate a distribution of system stats against which I ccould compare the stats produced by my non-random PositionScore (in your case for eg, V).
These lines give the 'null' reference distribution:
PositionScore = Random();
dummyopt = Optimize("dummyopt", 1, 1, reps, 1); // reps = your preference
Best

Suppose I'm trading from a watchlist of, say, 100 stocks (like the N100, for examplem, but it can be anything) and my portfolio size is 5 stocks (positionsize = -100/posqty, where posqty = 5). And suppose I want to select the highest volume stocks to trade, like:

My reasons for wanting to do this are not important (maybe I don't want to compete for the same 5 stocks as another guy who uses the same ranking formula, or maybe I just want to see how well my ranking formula picks winners). How would you code that? Any ideas?
