Nice suggestion...

How do you evaluate a winning strategy?

A recent method I discovered, is to check your win/loss percentage [not profit/loss amounts] for a given number of trades (I choose 20), now, if its above 50%, you have an edge, so there is no need to 'improve' the strategy. If the strategy still incurs a loss (in money) then your money management needs to be changed to tip the balance (without changing the strategy).

So rather than improve a winning system, an EA developer can simply calculate the systems edge on a per 20 trades( or any preferred number) basis, and once the results fall below 50% the EA stops and sends the owner an alert. Then you can consider improving or reconfiguring your EA.

My two cents
