Up until I didn't have a formula that was test-able. I could find what I was looking for with the explorer and it came with 50 extra hits of garbage.
As for Roy's Trade Equity formula I would have to say I don't understand how they are used.
I wasn't aware of Trade-sim and it looks expensive. I have found the one pattern I want to trade and have finally put together some code that helps me find clean signals thanks to everyone's help and really just wanted to experiment with drawdowns and length of time in trade.

"I don't understand why some of the brainier people on this board
don't have an alternate product for sale just to test systems."

Martin, I don't understand it either.
I mean, why would Roy give away his Trade Equity set of powerful, bug-
free, real-time backtesting tools, for free?  It just doesn't seem
very smart, and it probably means that his best work goes
unappreciated...

Of course, if you want to try the best commercial backtesting product
for MetaStock, there is always TradeSim:
