i wonder if methaquotav cloud can not be used for mining (i have no idea how it works))
Otherwise so much clean energy is idle )
No, it's up to the Methaquotes. OpenCL does not work in the cloud. They have a problem with Microsoft's strategy there (Windows services cannot create OpenCL processes). Theoretically there are options to overcome this, but I'm not sure it's not worth it. In particular, I think that mining will not pay off. Other options of using OpenCL in the cloud may be more profitable, but it's not clear which ones. (So, you can keep generating ideas, maybe something will work out.)
Then it's not interesting. Because even CPU mining for bits is done via OpenCL, then you can get speeds from hundreds of kilohesh to several megahes per second on a single core. If you mine with MQL, it is unlikely that you get hundreds of kilo hashes per second? However, all this has to be tested in practice.
Another problem here: MQL doesn't work directly over TCP/IP, and mining over other protocols is problematic to connect. I.e. I'll have to build a gateway via pipes or some other crutch, e.g. to invent a dll. The crutches will eat up all the performance. Besides, we'll need JSON RPC parser as well.
It's a lot of work just to run it for the sake of interest, but you can't see any profit.
You can tell by implication. In particular, if it were possible to profit here, there would be a terrible shortage of cloud computing capacity in the world :)
Also, as I understand it, pools are afraid of botnets and large numbers of vorkers won't do the trick, so you have to disguise the network somehow. This most likely means the need for unproductive data flow.
maybe someone would like to have a go at me )

Add that cookie support is mandatory.
It's clear that you have to use mat mode. But it won't pay off anyway, will it?
It won't pay off. The intended use of the platform is quite different.
But I have an MD5 hash cracker in MQL5 which is not completely written yet. It efficiently batch-distribute tasks in matrix mode and uses the gamma of tester's capabilities, including automatic speed visualization and display of found passwords.
Maybe I'll post the code as soon as I finish it.

Frankly speaking, I thought you wanted to develop also the ...@home type industry, and there can be anything from mining to molecular computing and bruteforcing anything, otherwise it is really not clear why OpenCL was introduced.
After all, it is practically inapplicable for ordinary trading tasks and in general a very specific area.
If you're interested you can supervise the work, I'll pay for it, as long as it's within a reasonable price.)

You're making something up for yourself.
For common tasks it is very applicable, it is enough to think about batching calculations instead of doing silly things like "I will pass a 100 nanosecond task to cloud".
