if i set the stepmax parameter higher then i increase the performance of the neuralnet? Would be my prediction more accurate?
Unfortunately, it's very hard to give a good answer to this question as stated. If the model is underfitted, giving it more iterations might result in performance increase. If the model is not underfitted, giving it more iterations may improve its training set performance while worsening its ability to predict non-training samples. Have you tried it yourself?
