I am just using regular VPS with 2 cores and it has been 2 days now and its still loading to backtest. I am not high level with programming and networking like some here but if anybody has backtest results soon, please share. thank you

according to my last comment, may be this function that check if market is open can help you :

 

bool trade_session()
{
datetime time_now = TimeCurrent();
MqlDateTime time;
TimeToStruct(time_now, time);
uint week_day_now = time.day_of_week;
uint seconds_now = (time.hour * 3600) + (time.min * 60) + time.sec;
if(week_day_now == 0)
day_of_week = SUNDAY;
if(week_day_now == 1)
day_of_week = MONDAY;
if(week_day_now == 2)
day_of_week = TUESDAY;
if(week_day_now == 3)
day_of_week = WEDNESDAY;
if(week_day_now == 4)
day_of_week = THURSDAY;
if(week_day_now == 5)
day_of_week = FRIDAY;
if(week_day_now == 6)
day_of_week = SATURDAY;
datetime from, to;
uint session = 0;
while(SymbolInfoSessionTrade(_Symbol, day_of_week, session, from, to))
{
session++;
}
uint trade_session_open_seconds = uint(from);
uint trade_session_close_seconds = uint(to);
if(trade_session_open_seconds < seconds_now && trade_session_close_seconds > seconds_now && week_day_now >= 1 && week_day_now <= 5)
return(true);
return(false);
}

Very big code)) can be easier code and more semantic : 

VoidOnTick()
{
if(MQLInfoInteger(MQL_TESTER)==1)
     {if (DayofWeek()==6 || DayofWeek()==7) {return;} }
…
} // end VoidOnTick

—————————————-

 

int DayofWeek() // function
{
MqlDateTime tm;
TimeCurrent(tm);
return(tm.day_of_week);
}

Added into EA MPGOv4.9.5 soon updates.

Not good idea use VPS for Strategy Tester, especially so slow parameters

The slow work of testr is becsuse of server data and signal MQL protection

Hi, have you reached the goal? Because v4.9.5p I downloaded doesn’t work in tester… It stops suddenly with no trading time error

Sorry Alex my proposal to manage the loss of time during the weekend in the tester remains there, my solution has not solved the problem the tests lose a crazy amount of time during the weekend periods.

what makes you think its because of weekends ? as for me EA now start pass weekends at all and not trade at weekends in wersion v4.9.5 – i mean no messages in tester during weekends as it was. 
I also repeat total speed of EA in Strategy Tester also because of Signal Data Connection between EA and Server

The strategy 5 (triangle + usd hedge) is just for news time  ? I ask because the signal = 50 and the strengh of pairs on the colum use to be less than 10. So its could be many days without any single trade. Is that right or i have to reduce signal entry ?

First of all, it is not necessary to use signal strength = 50 …

all i wanted is you all start to discuss this power of signals … you can use 10 20 21 22 … any you like …if you feel it will work?

hello Alex, from what I’ve understood, the overlap is triggered manually when you have a high DD. As this is a situation that cannot be simulated in tester, i.e. either the overlap option is permanently on or permanently off, do you have any idea of the DD threshold at which you feel the overlap should be triggered? and on the other hand, is it relevant to set an option for the DD percentage at which the overlap should be triggered?

One of you  (Arjun) in MT4 version proposed ON overlap when ( Balance – Equity ) > X . This X can be added into Inputs or Area with Buttons (for now i dont want to add any buttons but intime we can collect what we need and code some buttons for semiuatomated trading if it will be very necessarry and will not speedslow EA). So if (Balance – Equity) > 25% dd EA can auto ON Overlap but at the same time balance always grow because of LastTP … need to think about how move targets in balance and Equity for such function and what what part of Balance we can use in Overlap during such method… Means we use all additional balance from >25% DD up to <25% of DD… i need to think is it possible at all or not

Hello Alex,

 

is it possible, that all Metatester Agents in the Network farm are not connected with my PC and are not working/calculating, if i do a optimization with Metatrader 5?

I can not see any calculated values in my other network maschines. If i do a optimization with a other MT5 expert advisor, it works.

Thank you for your answer.

maybe possible – because of slow work EA in tester based at such mql protection

hello Alex, when I backtest with the new version (the second version you posted with the number v4.9.6p ), I get the impression that it doesn’t close a series of positions when the takeprofit is reached. Maybe there’s something I didn’t understand in the way it works. Here are two screenshots with the situation I’m describing and the corresponding parameters.
