The Walk Forward Optimization feature is a great one. Its really good at scaring me, and I am far happier to lose pretend money rather than real money.
I am requesting a change to the way it moves forward.
Say it is set to optimize over 320 days and test for 30 days.
It optimizes for 320 moves forward 320, then walks forward 30, then repeats.
Each cycle uses 350 days, so if I have 4 years of data, I only get 4 months of actual walk forward results.
It would be better if it moved back 320 before repeating the next cycle. This way, I could get at least 36 months of walk forward results.
If I can get things working well, this would give me far more confidence going forward live.
