ahhhaaaaaa that was the problem, thank you sooo much !!!
It is all correct.
The effect you observe is caused by the Max spread protection.
The original collection was generated with Max spread = 42 points.
It looks like the spread of SPX500 is increased recently and goes above 42.
See how the performance changes when you play with the spread.
When I increased the Max spread to 53 points, new trades appeared.
...
The Max spread protection option is the most important feature of EA Studio introduced in 2025.
I'm adding it to Express Generator also.
i also noticed that something with this collection is wrong it says 50 EA, but when I load back it only has 10. I hope this could help.
Okay, so when I recalculate it, it still shows only one trade OOS. The feed seems to be working, but the strategy seems to be ignoring it. I’m not sure if this is typical, but usually, it works perfectly OOS
Helo Traders,
I just uploaded Express Generator v2.68
This release includes new fetch parameter: --if-missing-or-older-than = 0
It accepts time in minutes.
This parameter is useful to prevent frequent data download when we run the fetch command automatically.
If it is set, it will prevent subsequent file download if a current data file exists and is updated recently.
; This option is helpful to prevent frequent downloads of data files.
; It accepts time in *minutes*, where 0 means the option is off.
; Example: if_missing_or_older_than = 60
; It will download new data file if the current file is missing or not updated during the last 60 minutes.
if_missing_or_older_than = 0
Example:
It fetches the files the first time.
Then I run the fetch again with adding M1 period.
It skips the existing files because are fresher than 60 minutes and downloads the M1 file only.
Have success with your trading and a lot of fun!
I check the data and they look fine.
What does happen if you click "Recalculate"?
Try to open a single strategy in the Editor to examine it.
Hello it seems something on the Indices Datefeed is broken. My Strategies don't trade OOS.
Happy New Year!
Wish you huge success and fun in 2026!
I'm currently working on the successor of EA Studio and FSB Pro. It is a huge project and will take time.
I'll start positing daily progress soon.
I also plan several updates for the current products:
- adding Max Spread protection in the ExGen's backtester
- updating the evaluation algorithm for the Top 10 generator. We generate a ton of strategies in our servers. I have interesting plans for them.
- updating the code of the MT5 experts and portfolios.
