If anyone wants to try a pre-release, please let me know
GSB — What's New (User Summary)
Covering roughly the last 30 days (v73.85 - v74.72)
=====================================================
1. ACCURACY: MANY FILTERS AND INDICATORS NOW MATCH EXACTLY
------------------------------------------------------------
A large effort went into making sure GSB's filters and indicators produce
the exact same results as the reference trading platforms they are
compared against (TradeStation and MultiCharts).
- A new "Match-Check" button was added so you can run a one-click
comparison of GSB's results against the reference platforms directly
from the Tester Settings screen.
- The match-check report was improved several times: it now shows the
worst mismatches first, includes notes explaining likely causes,
summarizes price data and settings used, and ignores meaningless
tiny decimal rounding differences so real problems stand out.
- Using this tool, the team found and fixed mismatches in a large
number of filters (including ATR Trend Reversal, Day-of-Week,
Average-Cross filters, MACD-based filters, DPO cross filters, and
several others) and in several indicators (pivots, AccumDist,
Chaikin Oscillator, Median Oscillator, Zero Crossings, and more).
- Net result: confidence that what you see in GSB matches what the
same strategy would do on the reference platforms has gone up
significantly across this set of filters and indicators.
- One specific fix worth calling out: a day-range calculation used by
the AccumDistDR0 indicator was producing the wrong value
specifically on Kase bars (and other synthetic, non-time-based
bars); this is now fixed and verified to match.
- Day-bar reliability was also tightened during this period: GSB is
more careful about when it considers daily data trustworthy enough
to use, with clearer guidance shown when day-resolution data is too
sparse or unavailable for a given price file.
2. NEW FEATURE: OPENING RANGE BREAKOUT (ORB)
------------------------------------------------------------
A new constrained Opening Range Breakout indicator, filter, and
protective stop have been added, available consistently on every
supported trading platform (GSB, TradeStation, MultiCharts, and
NinjaTrader).
3. NINJATRADER SUPPORT EXPANDING
------------------------------------------------------------
Support for NinjaTrader 8 continues to grow:
- Many more indicators have been ported and verified to match,
including price/value/volume indicators, AccumDist variants,
calendar-day-based indicators, and others.
- 13 additional filters (including time-of-day and day-of-week based
filters) are now available and verified-ready on NinjaTrader.
- Numerous compatibility and compile issues specific to NinjaTrader
were tracked down and fixed so these ports run reliably.
4. "WHAT'S NEW" PANEL (the feature you're reading about right now)
------------------------------------------------------------
A new in-app "What's New" panel was added under the Help menu:
- Automatically pops up after an update, with an option to silence it.
- Available in 4 languages.
- Highlights new settings directly where you'd find them — for
example, a star icon next to new options in the settings grid, and
a "New only" filter so you can quickly see just what changed.
5. SETTINGS MANAGEMENT IMPROVEMENTS
------------------------------------------------------------
- A new, easier-to-use editor for picking which Entry Modes,
Normalization Modes, Entry Orders, Exit Modes, Stops, and Targets
are enabled — with search, sorting, and platform-aware filtering
(only showing items relevant to your selected platform).
- The same style of editor was extended to the Filters and Indicators
enabled-lists.
6. DATA HANDLING FIXES
------------------------------------------------------------
- Fixed a bug where automatically generated daily data files could be
saved in a date format that GSB couldn't read back in. Daily data
files now save in a consistent, readable format and several older
file date formats are now recognized when loading.
- Fixed a price-data session configuration issue affecting certain
24-hour futures data feeds (extra weekend bars being included).
7. RESULTS GRID: HIDE EMPTY COLUMNS
------------------------------------------------------------
- Optimization results grids now automatically hide columns that have
no data for the current run (for example, Out-of-Sample columns
when OOS wasn't used), so the grid is less cluttered by default.
- A redesigned Columns submenu groups columns by period (Full,
Sample, Validation, Latest-Days, Out-of-Sample, Current, and so on)
with tooltips, and lets you bring any hidden column back with a
single click if you need it.
8. GENERAL POLISH
------------------------------------------------------------
- Cleaned up and unified icon colors and styles across the app.
- Fixed a tooltip on the Price Data screen that could overlap its own
dropdown or fail to reappear.
- Various small reliability fixes to version tracking, so settings
saved under an older version continue to behave correctly when
reloaded.
