Ddlv,

In my income view, the risk is fully managed, it is the initial CR, all of it. It is the amount I fully tolerate to lose and I set my margin and risk sliders appropriately. I tolerate that risk on the basis that the potential return is worth it, the NPV of the monthly income cash flows over the period of backtest (adjusted down naturally on the sensible basis that real diverges from backtest results). If everything stays within parameters I'm happy to let it run.

Things I would find useful are an ability to see Monte Carlo simulations of the test trades, but anyone who can program could do this from the testrades.csv. Someone programatically challenged like me would also like to be able to custom select a timeperiod for running the test, but I think that may be possible by using the simulate script on the testrades.csv edited to remove time periods not of interest.
