Hi, for WFO optimized strategy, is it recommended to run MRC.c script with WFO enabled or disabled?

You should keep WFO enabled. The goal of the MRC is to validate the out-of-sample (OOS) equity curve produced by the WFO process.


Recommended workflow:

Perform a normal [Train] of your strategy first to generate the .par files.
Run MRC.c in [Test] mode. This validates if your out-of-sample results are statistically significant or just due to luck.


Running MRC.c in [Train] mode is even more rigorous as it also checks for "selection bias" (overfitting during the optimization process itself), but it is computationally very expensive and can take a long time with WFO.
