I recently decided to give QuantConnect another try. When doing so, I was forced to upgrade to the beta UI in order to use debug features. I'm now running into two deal breaker issues:
- The parameters on the left frame of the IDE don't do anything. I've stepped through debug mode to confirm. For context, I'm using the following statement:
self.riskFactor = float(self.GetParameter("riskFactor"))
2. The optimization wizard never returns any reports. I've run it twice now and I can see that 12 tests have completed. However, the report results never appear and I'm charged for it. There's not even a way to navigate to these reports from the UI as far as I can see.
Please advise!

Hi Richard,
The cloud IDE is currently in transition. I'd say that the optimization engine is most probably still wobbly. The new VSCode IDE is still in beta…
Have you reported those issues? There are quite a few more currently being worked on.
