Description

The current Portfolio Backtester hasn't the function to perform a Walk Forward optimization. This is an important feature, since walk forward optimizations are one of the most robust ways of optimizing, and give a more realistic picture about what kind of future performance can be expected.

Steps to reproduce this issue

I bought MC recently, and just realised that the portfolio backtester doesn't have walk forward analysis. For an equities trader like me, this is a major drawback.
It would be extremely valuable if this issue was given high priority.
Thank you
