I believe this is a very useful feature.

It would help to hear from others who program their own trading systems.

I have to believe that others who design trading systems must have adjustable parameters as well. I'm sure they don't get every single thing right the first time and that their trading system works for all time. It seems reasonable that a trading system designer will have to iterate on the trading system at least a few times.

Having the capability to at least instruct sierra chart to run multiple backtests, each with a different parameter, each backtest producing it's own trading activity log would help save a lot of time and make it very easy to compare the performance of one trading system iteration to another.

Also I realize it's not trivial to add this feature to sierra chart- but I don't believe it's that hard either. I'm not asking for new functionality. I essentially want to repeat existing functionality over and over again.
