Returns the backtest settings (instance of the BacktestSettings class) being used for the optimization.

Returns the instance of the StrategyBase derived class that represents the compiled Strategy being optimized.

Returns the Optimizer (instance of an OptimizerBase derived class) selected for the optimization.

Returns the IOptimizerHost instance that allows an Optimizer to communicate information back to its host.

Returns the position size (instance of the PositionSize class) being used for the optimization.

Allows an Optimizer to report its estimated completion percentage to the host. The value parameter should be between 0 and 100.

Returns the instance of the ScoreCard selected for the optimization.

Returns a List of BarHistory instances containing the historical data being used for the optimization.

Compiles the unique parameter values that were actually used during the optimization and assigns them to the OptimizedValues property of each Parameter in the supplied pl ParameterList. This is useful for Optimizers that do not necessarily test every possible value represented by a Parameter's MinValue, MaxValue, and StepValue.

Executes an optimization run by performing a backtest of the Strategy using the parameter values specified in the pl ParameterList. Returns an instance of the OptimizationResult class containing the performance metrics and results of the run. Optimizer extensions normally only need to supply pl. The optional bmBacktester and addToResults parameters are used internally by WealthLab and can normally be ignored. If a run using the same parameter values has already been completed, WealthLab can return the previously calculated OptimizationResult instead of executing the backtest again.

Returns true if the Optimizer generated parameter values that fall outside the discrete values represented by the Parameters' MinValue, MaxValue, and StepValue settings. WealthLab determines this by examining up to the first 100 optimization results.

Returns a sorted List of the unique parameter values actually used during the optimization for the Parameter at index idx. Since many Optimizers are not exhaustive, the returned values can be a subset of the possible values represented by the Parameter's MinValue, MaxValue, and StepValue properties.

Initializes the StrategyOptimizer for a new optimization operation by clearing its internally recorded completed runs.

Returns true if this StrategyOptimizer is currently being used as part of a Walk-Forward Optimization (WFO).

Returns the IOptimizationHost instance hosting this StrategyOptimizer.

Returns an instance of the OptimizationResultList class containing all recorded optimization runs. Each item in the list is an instance of the OptimizationResult class and contains the parameter values and performance results for one optimization run. Assigning a previously saved OptimizationResultList to this property also rebuilds the StrategyOptimizer's internal record of completed runs.

An optional delegate that is called whenever an optimization run completes. The delegate receives the completed OptimizationResult along with the estimated percentage of the overall optimization that has been completed.
