UseCloud=1 not honored. Optimization with configuration.ini does not use MQL5 Cloud Network.

 

Hello,

I run an optimization that does not connect to the MQL5 Cloud Network automatically. 1) Cloud credentials are present, 2) MQL5 has funds to cover the optimization.

I can manually, go to the "Strategy Tester", open tab "Agents", enable "Use MQL5 Cloud Network" and successfully run the optimization

But I want it to run automatically, so there is no interaction required.

terminal64.exe /config:config.ini /portable

and the contents of config.ini are:

[Tester]
Expert=X.ex5
ExpertParameters=X.set
Symbol=AUDCHF
Period=H1
Currency=USD
Deposit=10000
Leverage=1:500
Model=0
ExecutionMode=0
Optimization=2
OptimizationCriterion=0
FromDate=2020.05.01
ToDate=2020.05.12
ShutdownTerminal=1
UseCloud=1
; end

When I run the command I see in the journal:

NO      2       10:45:33.278    Tester  no agent is ready, optimization not started. <----- THIS IS WHAT I GET WRONG

What am I doing wrong and why UseCloud=1 is not honored?

Thanks
