This can be run on M15, M30, etc but I don't know above that. Enough options are checked that 10 people running the optimization will all get different results, so don't feel bad about duplication of work.

I'd like to optimize on at least 6 weeks of data, followed by at least 4 weeks of data for out of optimization testing. Out of the top 20 or 100 optimized results, I'd be interested in their out of bounds test results. You can copy the results out with a right click, copy all. I optimize on data, and then tell it to 'set input parameters' on the other settings.

Most of the settings are now normalized in release to work for different currency types. You could run the same optimization set on USDMXN, USDJPY and USDCHF, but I don't know what the results would be (can't check either). Phoenix previously had a lot of settings that needed to be changed by an order of magnitude if the number of digits changed (5,2,4 respectively). I automatically normalize them all I think.

Lastly, I'll reveal weekend trader to people who signed up with PhoenixFund as an IB. I'm going to ask one of the volunteers for the nonprofit who works on the foundation's accounting to manage the regular accounting of PhoenixFund, I simply don't have the time for it.

I'm going back to working on this python code... bugs are gone now I just need it to be more intelligent...

to wokr with wich version?

I have tried to download the Pheonix EA from your post but the resulting file is a text file with unformatted code which doesn't compile.

Would you upload the EA again please, I am keen to test this EA.

Regards

The MQ4 is in this thread, message 1: Phoenix - Development+Suggestions - MQ4 in Post#1
The settings files are in this thread, updated regularly:
Settings Files

I currently don't have a settings file to use, I need to find a new one. The last one USDJPY M30 had 16 wins, 5 losses before I turned it off. Normal trading was 14 wins 2 losses for 2 months.

Hi,

If you let met give some advice you need to learn what´s trading first
