Good afternoon to all. After optimizing an EA, we often have to nerd out-of-sample more than a dozen sets of parameters suggested by the optimizer. I have an idea of optimizing Expert Advisors outside the sample. Suppose we "charged" the Expert Advisor with optimization by a number of parameters
Can Metatrader capture mouse clicks and pass those values into an indicator - similar to the Andrew's Pitchfork. Someone suggested that WindowPriceOnDropped & WindowTimeOnDropped may be an answer. Thank you for your help.
