Is there a way to optimize a back-test to work faster?
Is there a way to optimize a back-test to work faster?
Perhaps MT4 will run on multiple cores for optimized back-test?
28 day optimized back-test (with the fastest laptop i could buy at the time)...
8 core intel and only using one core for MT4
MT4 does run on multiple cores, it even uses more than one core . . . just not for running multiple Strategy Tester threads . . .
We have had the conversation of optimizing your code before: https://www.mql5.com/en/forum/144240 I managed to make it approx. 90 times faster.

- Don't do unnecessary calculations. What doesn't change mid bar, do once per bar. See also my callagain functions (if you are waiting for price to hit a trigger don't do anything until it hits, or trigger becomes invalid like on a new bar.
- One core only.
- I also published a multi-pass optimization.
