this does not work

it just Stops the Expert Receiving frame, but not the whole testing process.

(I can provide a full working code if necessary to prove what I am telling)

I also wanted some function similar, or EXACTLY as, pressing the "STOP" button on the strategy tester, but found NO way to do it yet.

or am I doing it wrong?

(tried to call it inside OnTesterPass() = stops the receiving frame, but optimization keeps running)

(tried it on other functions, also by setting a global boolean variable to control it, variable is modified correctly, then I tried to call ExperRemove() on other Tester functions, none worked as desired [ like pressing the STOP button])

if someone knows how to do it, please inform me.

thanks

You can click stop button with dll. This library can do it (and much much more) https://www.mql5.com/ru/code/26132
