For example, if you select ONLY Net Profit as your weighted fitness criterium and sort the results by the fitness column you will see that the order is wrong when compared to sorting the Net Profit column. This is true for many of the fitness items (though I didn't test them all). I didn't attach a config file because it does it for all builds that I've tried. I also tried version 139 and the problem is still there as well.
Yes that would cause it. I would have that separated out as a separate factor instead of always included in the weighting. Or have a specific factor that is sqrt ( number of trades) so there are diminishing returns as the number of trades goes up.
Hello,
there is a specific procedure concerning the NumberOfTrades. If it falls below a certain threshold, we adjust the fitness accordingly.
Could this potentially be the problem in your situation?
If not, please attach the strategies so that I can investigate further.
Best regards,

if(trades < 20) { fitness *= 0.3; } else if(trades < 30) { fitness *= 0.4; } else if(trades < 50) { fitness *= 0.6; } else if(trades < 70) { fitness *= 0.8; } else if(trades < 100) { fitness *= 0.85; } else if(trades < 150) { fitness *= 0.9; }
