Running MT5 Strategy Tester on many EAs in the background using command line and agents

 

Hello,


I would like to run MT5 Strategy Tester on many EAs using different symbols and timeframes. I use the command line as follows:

"C:\Program Files\MetaTrader 5\terminal64.exe" /config:"C:\LOCATION\config.ini"

This will run MT5, run the Strategy Tester and closes MT5. I have several questions:

1. If I have MT5 open, then use the above command, this would not run the strategy tester, why? I would like to keep the MT5 open and keep sending command lines to it to run the strategy tester.

2. If I have over 100 EAs, I would like to find a practical way of sending them to strategy tester and making use of the agents. For example, if I am sending EA # 1 to strategy tester with no optimization and it is using agent #1, I should be able to send EAs # 2 to 8 simultaneously to use agents # 2 to 8 on my local computer. How can I do this?

3. Can I do this process using the command line in the background without opening MT5 at all?
