Backtester Rerun
I'd like to be able to rerun a backtest after changing the underlying UniSearch. As it is, I have to make a useless change to the test, initiate a run, stop, and go back and fix it and run it again. The Run button is not enabled unless a change is made to the test.

Another way you can do this is to hit the rewind button and take the bar back to the left. When the Run button turns green, hit it and clear the data. Then hit the fast forward button so the orange bar goes to the left. Then hit Run and the amended backtest will start. Okay this is 4 clicks but I find it faster than making the trivial change,

To run a backtest again after changing a parameter in the underlying search, just click on edit and then click on another unisearch search then straight away click back to the search you want to run. No need to actually run the unwanted search that you clicked on temporarily. Actually changing anything i.e. 'Stop' criteria to something else then back again resolves this problem.
