The optimum lookback for WWL (picking among screens) is decidedly NOT the same as the optimum lookback for ranking stocks within a screen.

The optimum lookback for stocks within a screen varies with the screen, since different styles of investing have different user populations. e.g., sales growth types versus high yield types.
