Moving Average MetaStock Feature (I think?)

I've recently purchased MetaStock and recall reading about a feature/tool sometime ago which I beleived was included within MetaStock (I can't be certain it was MetaStock, but I'm pretty sure).
The feature as I remember it enabled you to run a Moving Average over ONE selected stock to determine its performance, But instead of just running a moving average with 1 paramater (ie, 200days) it automatically ran every possible paramater (eg, between 10-200days) and gave you a report to indicated which moving average cross over combination gave the best profit on that ONE stock.
Is anyone aware of this feature, either within MetaStock or another program.
Thanx

Paradox,
Welcome to the Forum.
This data mining/curve fitting tool is available in the System Tester as an optimzation variable. Please use this feature with caution and a full understanding of the consequences.

Thankyou Wabbit
And yes I completely agree you have to be careful not to optimise these things too much to fit your history data.
Yet it is funny after using it that the simplest of parameters with low trades seem to provide the best results.
Thanx
