:-) glad to know that only 9% has my same experience. In all my backtest following primary trend take profit is the factor that much increases profits in my tests  giving at the same time a lower drawdown.
 

Price level to execute a deal

does this mean entry and exit?

Then exit can be take profit and stop loss and trailing stop. so 3 choice for me.

Price level to execute a deal is buy or sell limit order.

doshur but you need to choose the one that mostly affects positively your strategy.

For me all listed help optimization parameters but only one to be choosen.

 

Poll Winners:

Price level to execute a deal and Take Profit.

I do personally agree.

Timeout, anyway, in my opinion, it depends too much on each strategy and custom optimization algorithms (if enabled).

Rogerio, I agree with what you've said.

Going into  my strategies  I do read that all of the exit options (also all together)  greatly improve both the profit and the drawdown so is a good starting point for optimization.

Ronnie, thanks for sharing your experience.

Can you also share how long time you are used to backtest?
