what makes your aim with 3000 pips per day?

I have found 47 Strategies in EurChf and now 3 weeks in Real Account with 500 Dollar, max DD was ~ 20 % and the Result till now is 320 Dollar Profit. All with 0.01 Lot.

I hope it goes more up, i am very very excited with this Function in EA Studio

Popov -- would it be possible to also add another option to FSBPro that would allow pruning of excess strategies based on another criterion besides Net Balance?  Or maybe there is a way and I'm just missing it?

When you take a strategy and optimize it.....  how do you get the results through Monte Carlo and Multimarket again....

Let's say you got 15 excellent results from optimizing.... do you have to do them all manually?

Thanks

Yeah, manually.

Currently there is no way to set another criterion.

I may add such option and it is also possible to add an adjustable max_collection_size setting.

I'm very busy now, but will add this option next week.

Please post ideas how it can be organised.

Actually this is a very good plan and don't need additional options.

I set up 5 separate instances and they will be ready in a few hours and I will start anew.

I am still using the unconventional Stop Loss and Take Profit for this first batch, the next batch will be a little different.

Thanks for the insights, guys.

Now that you've confirmed this -- then another thing occurred to me.  Perhaps you can noodle on this as well...

As candidate strategies are generated their Net Balance is compared to strategies that are already members of the Collection.  If the size of the Collection is < 100, then a strategy is promoted (as long as it meets the Acceptance Criteria).  However, if the size of the Collection is now 100, then a new candidate strategy not only has to meet the Acceptance Criteria, but its Net Balance must also be higher than at least one strategy that is already a member. 

If EA Studio has been running a while then the Collection may have become "polluted" with high Net Balance strategies with poor stats -- making it difficult for new strategies with excellent stats to make it into the Collection.  Do you know what I mean?

I've noticed the first 100 strategies "ascend" more quickly than the second 100 strategies.  And I think this is because the second 100 strategies have to jump over two bars -- Acceptance Criteria plus Net Balance.  The first 100 strategies only have to pass Acceptance Criteria.

The only way around this that I can think of is to stop the Reactor before it reaches 100.  And then use your filters to pick the best ones based on SQN, Sharpe, Win / Loss, etc.  In the end your filtered Collection will be a subset of the original and may only have 10 or 20 members.  So, you would have to repeat this a few times to create several Collections and once the combined size of your subset collections nears 100 you can import them back into EA Studio to create a single Collection that can then be exported as a Portfolio mq4 file.

You set up Generator settings, for example search best SQN and you're off. Then if collection is full (100 strats) and new strat is found, lowest SQN gets pushed out if the newly found strat has a higher SQN than the last strat. Use SQN sorting in the collection also. To me it seems to work this way, I'd be disappointed if it didn't.

I see what you are saying..... and for sure pollution would be present.

I am generating for each sort individually at present. It will take a while but I have housework to do .lol

Too funny.. really appreciste your input.!

I am thinking now that the lowest or poorest result in the sort will be dropped when a better one is generated....

Wow, I am so glad you pointed this out.
