Thanks for your prompt reply, Alan.  I think I need to use an example to show my idea.  Let me set up a reactor with the data horizon of 1/6/2023 – 31/10/2023, OOS = 40%, min. profit factor = 1.2.  After execution, 23 strategies are collected.

Then I add the top 5 strategies to the portfolio and check the result.  The net profit is 1233.18 which is normal.

To check how the strategies perform in the next month, I changed the data horizon to 1/11/2023 – 30/11/2023 and click the “Calculate” button in the portfolio page.  The net profit became -39.82.  It means that the generated strategies is losing in the next month.

I checked many symbols, time frames and data horizon, the negative profit is more common than the positive.  So it means that I cannot rely on the strategies generated from previous months.  Is this conclusion correct or I am doing something wrong?
