I think this is the same issue that Steve Mayo is trying to get Nirvana to address....some type of sorting that has some real meaning to results. Borrowed from another thread.....

"These options all still suffer from a bias effect (ie. biasing selection toward low-alpha, high/low price, high/low volume stocks.) Any chance of getting a sorting routine that uses some measure of predicted performance, such as the advisor rating for the signaled trade? Even better, I though you guys were working on something akin to DSS???

If you can't sort using some historic signal performance measure, in terms of simply eliminating the selection bias, adding the option of a truly random trade selection might be a good option to add to this list. That combined with the "Allow settings to reduce" option would help make the equity curve and backtest metrics more statistically valid." Steve Mayo
