A great product.
I run an exploration, goto TradeSim, open *.trb, set initial capital to lots, run simulation, goto charts, view capital in trades, reduce initial capital to minimum required, run simulation then note annualised compound interest rate and use this as the RESULT. Then necessary to delete the *.trb file, make adjustment to exploration and go again, to see the result of a small adj to exploration. Is this a good approach? It helps me.

It would be great if-
a)Did not have to delete *.trb (ok to garbage etc)
b)I could put 'auto' in as initial capital, and TradeSim calculate amount to take in all trades, so I could then see amount required as I checked annualised rate.
c)After simulation the 'Profit Summary' window appeared straight up.

This would speed up the whole process considerablly - or am I going about the whole thing the wrong way.

You don't have to delete them as you may want to go back to the old trade databases for comparison. Just create new trade databases using different names. ie System1, System2 etc.

b)I could put 'auto' in as initial capital, and TradeSim calculate amount to take in all trades, so I could then see amount required as I checked annualised rate.

In the future we may look at incorporating a money management optimizer in the Enterprise Edition.

Not sure what you mean.
