Walk forward testing is the most important tool available to traders to test the robustness of optimization process and resultant trading system but QuantShare's WFT tool only allows for testing against inbuilt fitness criteria.

I test all my trading systems with this fitness function - 2*AnnualRetrun+MaxSystemDrawdownInPercentage - and WFT tool does not allow me to define my own fitness function.

This is a serious limitation for any comprehensive trading and analysis platform. Please implement custom fitness functions for exhaustive optimization and WFT ASAP.

Trading financial instruments, including foreign exchange on margin, carries a high level of risk and is not suitable for all investors. The high degree of leverage can work against you as well as for you. Before deciding to invest in financial instruments or foreign exchange you should carefully consider your investment objectives, level of experience, and risk appetite. The possibility exists that you could sustain a loss of some or all of your initial investment and therefore you should not invest money that you cannot afford to lose. You should be aware of all the risks associated with trading and seek advice from an independent financial advisor if you have any doubts.
