Okay, I've done a bit more testing, and it looks like you were on to
something. By moving PositionScore into the custom backtest procedure,
the trade list was sorted by PositionScore, as it should be. Oddly
enough, the alphabetized trade list (with PS outside the custom
backtest) was still based on the top scores... so I'm not exactly sure
what's going on.

Anyway, good catch, Glenn, and thanks for your input!
