What a question you have, mostly everyone here is trying to automate strategies, and you want to automate the search for strategies.
IMHO, the question is absolutely correct. Before drawing a strategy, it would be good to know if it will work.
There are 2 ways to do this.
1.Excel - we write the strategy there and check it. any charts + good maths at your service. Yes, and + VBA.
2.MatLab - upload quotes to the database, connect it to MatLab and model the strategy there. Easier than in Excel.
Excel and MatLab can be combined and used together.
You can search until you get something.
There are other options, but these are the most affordable.

How to automate the search for strategies? Automate the process of strategy generation and automate the process of testing and optimisation with feedback in between?

How to automate the search for strategies?
Every time I load variants into the autotester I think about it. Here's what I'm thinking
1. The strategy generator should work on the principle of evolutionary tree from simple to complex.
2. The variants should be immediately checked on the volking-forward and eliminated
3. Functions should be prepared manually, and the generator should work out only the variants of their interaction, i.e. create interdependencies.
By the way, in the English thread I met a mention of some Bulgarian software with elements of something like this. But since it was on MT4, I was not interested in it.
And here's another German one, also on MT4 http://darwins-fx-tools.com/.

In general, a cool topic! At the limits of reasonableness. I once had an idea to build a neuron that would receive signals from different indicators and, depending on their success, give them estimated weights.
But then I went into scalping, everything is simple there, and I never developed the idea
