There's a statistical term for that....ummmmm...but I forget!!!
Has to do with when you add data that moves in similar patters or swings as data you already have.

...damn...still don't remember the term.....

I know that is the theory, but I am finding out that adding extra inputs often produces unprofitable models. I plan to go slowly, and find out exactly what is happening with each new addition.

I think that is a great idea to only select from quality inputs. What I was talking about was to give Profit 32 inputs and set the maximum number of inputs to say 8 and let Profit find the best model with 8 or less inputs.

Best Wishes,

Bob
