[EquisMetaStock Group] Re: Optimising A Value In The System Tester

[pumrysh <no_reply@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Kevin,

Without knowing the custon formula and its output its really hard to 
say what the best method would be. 

That being said, you could optimize a moving average of the output. 
You can optimize with values from 1 to whatever. Anything above 1 
will introduce lag.

Also, remember that if the custom formula requires an input parameter 
it will need to be set in the tester. If you do not set it, the 
default will be used.
