My desired use of the parameters are to set entry/exit conditions so I can test a number of changes relatively easily without changing the code each time, but it seems it is more work to do it this way.
When using algo parameters, it would be useful if the clone of backtest cloned the parameters as well. Currently it does not clone them nor appear (at least where I could find them) to report their values, unless I dump them to the log which is possible but it is cumbersome to view the log for each.
Does anyone have recommendations for a better way to accomplish this or whether I am using parameters in an unintended way?
Thanks

Cloning the backtest does clone the parameters. They will not show up in the web GUI until your code compiles successfully, however.
From what you describe, it seems like you're using parameters in a wise way.
