I ran a strat test through The Staking Machine , which gave a significant edge to a "rolling doubles" staking plan, but it by name is a not an option in BFBM. It is defined as:

"Rolling Doubles Staking Plan is similar to the parlay staking plan. However, instead of putting all your winnings on the next bet, only the winnings from half of your initial stake is added. This occurs on a rolling basis, creating rolling doubles. In summary – each selection in a series has two or three bets placed on it, depending on whether the first leg of the rolling double was successful: Assume initial stake is 2 units. This initial stake is split in half to give the size of the stakes in part 1 and part 2 below.

1. Always placed – A single win bet.
Possible Outcomes – take the profit if it wins, or accept loss of 1st Leg stake if it loses.
2. Always placed – Leg 1 of the rolling double.
Outcomes – carry forward the return if it wins, or accept loss of stake if it loses.
3. Only placed if Leg 1 wins – Leg 2 of the rolling double where the return from the winning Leg 1 is placed on the selection.
Outcomes – take profit from Legs 1 & 2 if it wins. If it loses the only real monetary loss to be accepted is the original stake placed in Leg 1."

Is the way to replicate this modify the "Overall P/L Parlay" strategy ?

Parlay staking plan has option to use only percent of previous profit, not whole profit. So try to set it to 50% and then test it in simulation mode.

Reset limit should be set to 2, so that Parlay restarts after 2 profitable markets.

Also add "Unsettled markets" rule and set it to 1, so that next bet is only placed when all previous bets are settled.
