In order to Cherry Pick, allow for the backtester to halt when portfolio loses a position.
To backtest the "Cherry Picking with CI Up and Comers" SOTW, the backtester would need to halt when the number of positions < the normal portfolio size. Cherry Picking is a GREAT method that VV does not currently support. VV would create a tremendous marketing win by publishing the incredible gains possible using the above-mentioned SOTW.

Next to the "Run" button, there are 2 checkboxes. One of them will stop the backtester any time a position is closed. This should let you cherry pick the stocks to repurchase when a position is closed. Hope that helps.
