I think optimizing for minimal consecutive losses is more important than optimizing for less drawdown. It doesn't necessarily mean that you get more money in backtest, but it may mean we have higher accuracy with prediction. In the next experimental release I plan to offer "Set SL X pip profit at Y pip profit". I would set it to 0 or 1 normally; 1 because a breakeven trade counts as a loss for statistics. More of my personal code merged into Phoenix...
daraknor,

As per your post, Bar based. 900 seconds ( one H15 Bar) minimum interval between orders.
