Would it help if you could execute 64,000 days of optimizations...in a SINGLE DAY?
Over the past 3 years, I have developed and proven a method of optimization that produces results 2000 times faster than leading products (per CPU core) along with a database to track and store results, a user interface to add/review optimization jobs, and a cluster of servers configured to execute at this speed. The system is scalable to meet the stated capacity by a factor of more than 1000.
I am looking for a few algorithmic trader's interested in exploring use of the system, and am willing to provide two weeks of optimization results at no charge to establish viability. In addition, user's who are willing to work with me will have an opportunity to negotiate for rights to become a licensed reseller.
Please contact me if you are interested. I will be glad to answer questions and to work through concerns.
When running an EA with the strategy tester not all entries are available in the Journal tab (or at least that's the way I understood it?).
My problem is when I check on ... /MetaTrader/experts/logs folder I can't find anything. There is no log file and I need to see what's in there. I know my EA is running as it generates trades that I can see in the Results tab. I can also see things in the Journal tab (but I need more obviously).
As an aside, the folder ... /MetaTrader/tester/logs is empty as well.
I didn't figure out why is that. Can anyone please help me with this.
I actually solved my prb.
This was a Vista issue. There is a 'compatibility folder' button that you need to click on Vista explorer to see the log files. (how stupid is that????)
The optimization of Metatrader is very slowly but there's a free program called (forex strategy builder) , it's faster than Metatrader.
I think it just need some development and it will be a great optimizer program.
Iīm a little bit trapped in an project EA considering itīs testing.
The EA is used on EURUSD, but uses internally a 2nd pair for correlation, the key codeline being this:
Code:
double bid_gbpusd=MarketInfo("GBPUSD",MODE_BID);
The problem inherited with this is, that I canīt backtest the EA for optimization, only forward. However this takes too much time. Usually I should keep it running for 3-4 days with one setting at least, but Iīm missing patience, when I notice, that it doesnīt succeed, as I wanted.
Does anybody have an idea on how to enable backtesting to make the necessary data for the 2nd pair available?
Iīve seen how to save historical data 1min in order to improve the efficiency of backtesting, which I usually donīt rely on.
