Made several Backtesting at once

New comment

Hi,

Im backtesting my strategy under different TP/SL and indicator parameters (as period), so i run a backtesting, i take note of results, then i change my code (TP for example) and run it again to compara with previous results and get optimal profit parameters. I was wondering if i can configurate MT to run everything at once and save results somewhere, i currently using MT4 but i can change to MT5 if it allows it.

Thanks for your replies.
