Not sure if anyone still reads any of these Support Forum posts ... am I in the wrong place perhaps?
Anyway, just interested in anyone's thoughts on this:

If I have a Strategy that backtests good for previous 3-4 months,
so should I worry if it fails for previous 5,6+ months?

My theory is that the market changes, so if I've optimised for previous 3 months (and keep it optimised for prev 3 months)
then who cares if it fails backtests for 6+ months ago.

Advice, comments, experiences please !!
