Which EA ? Why don't ask to the ea maker ?
I want to test a basic EA and I can not understand what is on the INPUTS, >> VARIABLE, VALUE, STEP, STOP . And what I have to put.
I understand that value is the input that I want to put.
Start, step, and stop I don't know
The "HELP" explanation I don't understand it.
Any help will be very appreciate it.
Say you have an integer input to the EA called MAperiod = 16 and it is used in the EA to set the period value for a Moving Average indicator.
The MA period will be 16 unless you change it.
If you want to optimise the period then you can select it in the optimiser and specify Start = 4 Step = 1 Stop =20
this will then test the EA 17 times with that parameter set as: 4, 5, 6, 7, etc up to 20.
if you set the step as 2 then it would do 4, 6, 8, etc up to 20
thanks max,
What I have to put if I don't want to optimizer, just the basic input

If you are not looking to optimise then you just put whatever values you want to run it with in the Value column ignore start/step/stop
what each of those settings do is another matter and only the EA author will have the knowledge
If you are not looking to optimise then you just put whatever values you want to run it with in the Value column ignore start/step/stop
so it doesn't matter if I leave blank those columns ?. I am only interested in "value"
