Hi, For k-ratio, I see this: "K-Ratio - Detects inconsistency in returns. Should be 1.0 or more. The higher K ratio is the more consistent return you may expect from the system. Linear regression slope of equity line multiplied by square root of sum of squared deviations of bar number divided by standard error of equity line multiplied by square root of number of bars.

"Should be 1.0 or more". Would anyone here consider as garbage some system with consistent results over 100% Net profit/annum in many variations simply because the k-ratio is.. let's say 0.2? I'm struggling with this because everything else is good: RAR is good RRR is good... The drawdowns are importants, but far more profit than drawdowns... So would you consider k-ratio should REALLY be more than 1.0?
