Hi,
Created a simple Forex RSI strategy, but in the backtest in the Research Guide it states "Likely Overfitting" while in the Alpha Ranking it says "Not overfitting"
As a newby on QC I am a bit puzzled. Can someone explain this? Any help is appreciated big time! <3
Thanks,
Chantal

Hi Chantal. Very nice coding, thanks for sharing. I have no idea what's going on with your overfitting question. Are you going to add code to stoploss just in case it doesn't hit the limit order?

Hi Warren,
Thanks. No I removed the stoploss as it caused more losses. This isn't a strategy I would run on a live account. It is just to practice programming in Python and learn QC.
