I'm running version 7.0.0.18. When I run the Optimizer function in the Strategy Analyzer, the summary line(s) show the wrong information. I ran a backtest first to see the results with the standard strategy parameters, and I then ran an optimization.
To keep it simple for the first run, I didn't vary any of the strategy parameters so there would only be one result row that should have matched the backtest results. The trades tab shows the same trades and cumulative profit as the backtest did, but the summary row on the top of the optimization screen is consistently showing the wrong results. Sometimes the summary screen shows the correct results (that matches the cumulative profit shows in the trades tab), and sometimes the summary screen shows the same incorrect results as the summary row on top.
I've attached three screen shots. The first one shows an optimization run with an incorrect summary row and the correct numbers in the summary display section. The second one shows the trades tab with the correct cumulative P&L.
If I run an optimization with multiple results (because I specified to vary one or more parameters), the result rows all show the same (bad) result and the summary section also shows the bad results (shown in the third screen shot). However if I go to the trades tab and click on different result rows at the top, the trades differ and show different (correct) results. If I go from the trades tab back to the summary tab, it then shows the correct results.
I think this is a bug, but if I'm doing something wrong please let me know.
Thanks,
Bob A.
