In testing any strategy I think one of the most important issues to look at is the max draw down. For that we only have the field "max draw down" (and even no way to check if the calculation is correctly done!). But that's it.
What would be very helpful in optimizing a strategy is adding a detailed journal. It should be same as the journal there is, but having a period journal e.g. daily when testing a strategy on daily chart. It should include the fields, open, close, low, high and the result of that specific position on that specific day, and what was that day the max drawdown.
This gives a perfect way (much better and detailed then trying to figure it out on the graph) exactly where a strategy goes wrong/could be optimized.
