Simulation and Optimize results mismatch Reply to this Post
Reply with Quote

This Simulation result, and Optimize result do not match when both are run under identical conditions. I've copied the simulation file to simulation name:

Optimize Test

1yr sim
Simulation total return 41.26%
Optimize total return 9.60%

Please confirm the mismatch, or let me know what's wrong with my setup.

Thanks,
Stu

Hi stumo,

Sorry for the delay.

Did confirm that the results are different.


Looking into it now.

Made a change, and it worked in the case where I previously saw the error.

Let me know if it's ok for you.

Thanks tedb,

I did confirm that the simulation, and optimization results now match. What is troubling is that the simulation result has changed to match the optimization result rather than the other way around as I would have expected.

So, do I need to re-run my other simulations? How will this effect my portfolio results? What has changed in the P123 algorithm to effect the new (different) simulation results? Is this new simulation result related to something unique to my simulation set-up?

Regards,
Stu
