How to Backtest?
- After extracting the configuration archive, you will find a kotr-ai-res.jsonl file. This is the AI output cache file. Copy it to Mql5 FILE_COMMON, which is usually located at:
- Windows: C:\Users\<Username>\AppData\Roaming\MetaQuotes\Terminal\Common\Files
- Mac: ~/Library/Application Support/net.metaquotes.wine.metatrader5/drive_c/users/user/AppData/Roaming/MetaQuotes/Terminal/Common/Files
- Backtest Knights of the Round. Just make sure the Symbol, timeframe, time range, and cache file match.

How to Optimize Parameters?
Same as backtesting: enable optimization, select the Custom max optimization function, then choose the parameters you want to optimize and their ranges.
How to Switch Models?
- Modify the model list and fill in the models you like.
- Select the backtest start/end time and timeframe (H1 recommended), then run Knights of the Round once. This will generate a kotr-ai-req.jsonl file, located in FILE_COMMON mentioned above.
- Note: If a kotr-ai-res.jsonl file already exists, Knights of the Round will automatically enter the actual backtest instead of generating the kotr-ai-req.jsonl file. If you want to continue generating kotr-ai-req.jsonl, delete the kotr-ai-res.jsonl file first.
- No trades will occur while generating the kotr-ai-req.jsonl file, so if you see a straight equity curve, don’t worry—this is normal.
- Attach Knights of the Round Helper to any chart, enter the OpenRouter API Key, and keep it running until the Experts tab outputs RunFetchAiResTask End. At this point, you will get a kotr-ai-res.jsonl file, which is the AI output cache file.
- You can close the chart at any time to stop Knights of the Round Helper. When you start it again, it will resume from where it left off.
- Next, you can start optimizing parameters and backtesting. If the results are especially good, feel free to share them in the Knights of the Round comments section.
