I mean i open 10 Tabs and let them generate. After somedays i dont know which settings i used. Specially when we use different setting files and so on. So is it possible to show loaded settings file here.

Settings: blabla.ini
Market : Premium Data XAUUSD H1

It will be nice

Is it different than:

;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;
;; Monte Carlo                      ;;
;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;

enable_monte_carlo            = true
count_of_tests                =  20
valid_tests_percent           =  95
mc_min_return_to_drawdown     =   2

Unfortunately these are very different. See a screenshot below where 95% of tests passed. However, the 95% confidence level is showing very different results.

What I'm after here is the Monte Carlo Confidence level at 95%.

Filter out results that are below Return / DD of 2 at 95% Confidence level.

I designed Express Generator to load a single Data Set and optimize the calculations around it.

We do Multi-Market validation by running ExGen over different data sequentially.

Here is an example:

Let's have a collection named "generated.json".

Here is how I do Multi-Market validation:

node ./bin/fetch.js --server ServerA --symbol AAABBB --period M30
node ./bin/gen.js   --server ServerA --symbol AAABBB --period M30 \
        --input generated.json --output multimarket-a.json --output-replace true

node ./bin/fetch.js --server ServerB --symbol CCCDDD --period M30
node ./bin/gen.js   --server ServerB --symbol CCCDDD --period M30 \
        --input multimarket-a.json --output multimarket-b.json --output-replace true

node ./bin/fetch.js --server ServerC --symbol EEEFFF --period M30
node ./bin/gen.js   --server ServerC --symbol EEEFFF --period M30 \
        --input multimarket-b.json --output validated.json --output-replace true

We can use any combination of a server, a symbol and a period.
The output collection is "validated.json" in that example.

--output-replace true serves to preserve the output collection name (it adds (n) suffix without it if the collection already exists).

I'd love to propose adding two new variables:

"min_entry_slots"

and

"min_exit_slots"

The reason is that I've never had a profitable live strategy that used just one indicator for entry.

So, having Express Generator search for strategies with only one entry slot doesn't seem worthwhile and ends up wasting CPU time for my use case.

By introducing a "min_entry_slots" variable, we could prevent unnecessary CPU use. The same goes for the number of exit indicators with the "min_exit_slots" variable.

Default, both should of course be set to 1, so that everyone can decide if that is useful for their strategy development method or not.

Thanks for considering this,

1] "min_average_position_length"
2] "max_average_position_length"

Thanks

This is a good idea. I'll just continue working on the separating exit indicators settings and will latest it.
Probably, an option like "optimize_indicators = true" will do the job.

It would be very useful for strategy that comes out in the exit indicator to come out only in TP and sl

Correct! The "min-profit" includes all swaps, spreads and commissions charged during the trading period.

> 2] What does "optimize_protections" mean in Optimizer,

When the "optimize_protections" option is enabled, the Optimizer optimizes the SL and the TP also.
