I was completely bummed when I discovered that as well and had given up on it until I saw that someone had actually made it work. <a href="http://investorshub.advfn.com/boards/read_msg.aspx?message_id=37424061" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">http://investorshub.advfn.com/boards/read_msg.aspx?message_id=37424061</a> Many times it's more about understanding how it works than it is finding something that's perfect. I hear that Fidelity has a good backtesting/strategy engine, but it may be weaker than SD's. Good luck in your search!
