I am new to AB but very familiar with walk forward analysis. AB should have an option to show the OSEQ curve without applying a sizing method so that the walk forward (which is usually done without sizing) net profit from each piece when added together will equal the OSEQ curve. It should also have the option of applying various sizing methods to the OSEQ set of trades. Do these options exist in AB?
Thanks
