How to measure a strategy

[Bert1995]

Hello,

Recently iam creating some strategies with the NT8 strategy builder and then backtesting/optimize them on historical data.

Iam always wondering when iam optimizing, whats the best parameter (or group of parameters) to have the best results on if you're aimimg for a relativly straight line up (not the highest return percé). I used average profit and sortino ratio but the graph isnt always showing what iam looking for.

Hope somebody can help

Cheers
