Tomasz --
Sorry, I ran only a short test. Therefore, only saw AA's spread sheet results. And didn't notice the speed increase.

Would it be possible to exclude the posting of null results from AA's spread sheet as well?

It limits the number of iterations to the extension required to
actually FIND OUT that you want to skip this. I.e. the formula needs
to be evaluated to find out that "Exclude" variable is true.
The "exclude" tells the backtester NOT to collect signals and not to perform actual portfolio backtesting.
This greatly increases the speed.

    I just tried your suggestion.  It does not limit the search or the
    number of iterations.  It just sets the results of the excluded
    tests to zero.
