How to improve your program for optimization with genetic optimiser? - Expert Advisors and Automated Trading

Mr.FreeMan:
Hurray, the tester is running at normal speed now. If you remove the limitation on the number of optimized parameters, I may think about switching to the tester by MetaQuotes Software Corp :)

And what do you personally do not like the possibility to optimize for 64 parameters (this is only explicitly indicated)?

It's hard to imagine how many options you can get for optimization...

Interesting:

And what is it about the ability to optimise by 64 parameters that bothers you personally (this is only explicitly stated)?

It's scary to think how many variants you can get for optimization...

64? At 10 it says "Tester too many passes for optimization, please try to decrease optimized parameters amount or to increase parameters' values step".

at these parameters:

According to the developers parameters can be guaranteed up to 64.

But here (in your case, as I understand it) there is another limitation - on the number of tester passes (though I do not remember the exact value).

The tester stated this directly to you (additionally highlighting the total number of passes in red).

When the number of variants is huge, use a genetic optimiser instead of a direct search. It allows efficient processing of trillions (any number) of variants.

So it is with genetics enabled as well.

Mr.FreeMan:
So it's the same with genetics on.

We'll figure it out and fix it.

There have already been two or three upgrades, but the"64" limitation has not been removed. Now I will write one project and I would like to know exactly whether to use the standard tester with an unlimited number of runs or to adapt the code immediately to a self-made tester.

AMD or Intel as Setting up the optimiser Please help me with

There is no error - maximum field of calculation should fit into unsigned int64 = 2^64-1(18,446,744,073,709,551,615).

When selecting the parameters to be run, use reasonable sufficiency.

Renat:

There is no error - the maximum miscalculation field should fit within unsigned int64 = 2^64-1(18,446,744,073,709,551,615).

Use reasonable sufficiency when selecting the parameters to be overridden.

I wonder what you mean by reasonable sufficiency?

Are you worried that my computer will consume a bit more power?

Why limit users artificially?

Another far-fetched problem.
