Topic: MT4-Portofolio Magic Numbers Correlation

Hello,

In MT4 the magic numbers of the strategies from a Portofolio are made from 2 parts, one is the "base magic number" (by default 100) and the strategy number for example 001. therefore the whole magic number displayed into MT4 Comments column will be 100001.

Into Expert Adivsor Studio, the magic numbers of the portofolio strategies are something like: 339.1;343.1;340.1 etc...


How can I make the connection between the strategy number from MT4 (Comments) and the magic numbers from Expert Advisor Studio?

Thanks

The numbers you quoted are called "Strategy ID". These are temporary numbers that help you to know which strategy you are editing. The Strategy ID has two parts:
example: 325.4
- Major part: "325" it represents the strategy composition. The strategy with equal indicators and logical rules have the same major ID.
- Minor part: "4" it shows the strategy version. The minor number changes when you change the numeric parameters of the indicators. Usually, the Optimizer produces new strategy versions and increments the minor number.

The strategy  ID has no connection with the MTs Magic Number.
The Strategy ID is temporary.
EA Studio sets ID numbers up to 999 and after that re-use the free numbers.

Re: MT4-Portofolio Magic Numbers Correlation

So, I cannot identify into the MT4 the strategies from Portofolio. In this case, is it possible to integrate into Portofolio-->Summary  tab the "Results" as  a sume of all "Results" from all strategies? It can be very useful in order to make a fast comparison to the "Account History" of the MT4.
