If i understand you correctly, you can accomplish this by unchecking ‘use market timing’ in the second step of the backtest wizard. doing so will give you just one set of automation rules, in which you can choose to buy long or sell short, thereby giving you a test where you’re always long or always short.

OTHER TIMING SYSTEMS ARE AVAILABLE, WHY NOT "ALWAYS LONG" AND "ALWAYS SHORT"?
