How do you deinitialise an EA?

[Stephen Njuki]

I am testing an EA that is taking too long by running over the entire test period for each pass despite running out of money at a much earlier time in some passes. How can I stop or terminate this EA during testing

Click on Stop button.

I meant in code... but I have actually found a way around this. Just use


return;


My EA is not that bad ;-(

Are you sure return; will terminate it during testing?

[Stephen Njuki]

It worked in my situation... and this was within OnTick()

Return in onTick don't terminate (or deinitialize) the execution of an EA, it simply ends the current OnTick execution.
