Your symbols and your datafeeds in Metatrader 5 - page 17

 
ANG3110:
Well, to answer this question objectively, not from memory, but as it is today, I need to look again at everything in detail. To prepare everything again, pull it out of the archives, etc. Here will make the developers datafeed, then perhaps I will again look at it all and maybe describe their latest impressions.
Well, I don't know... I liked the MT5 tester much better for a long time. The impossibility of custom data is the only disadvantage, and even that can be fixed at the expense of OOP - I once was going to make a class that would allow to use any data in the tester without problems.
 
ANG3110:
The picture I've attached is not based on visualization. In my "tester" the mode of remembering results of the previous test is enabled, because the name of pairs and time are different. This is all written to a file and at the end an exhash file is run, which opens a program to read the data from the file. They are sorted and grouped by characters, processed by time overlap points and then displayed on a graph and opens it. So all this is practically done at the click of a button. Or there is also a mode where I can remember the last test as if manually by running a script to record the latest results. In general, with this approach it is much more convenient and faster and more enjoyable to use.

Aaaaaa....

That's what I did... And, absolutely the same method, but all processing and output on a chart - I did it in Excel...

Of course it would be interesting to have something like that in strategy tester of MT5, but I'm afraid the developers aren't going to do it, it's more important for them to do something "for public use - But the majority of people are attracted to scats and I don't know what to do with them, but I'm afraid the developers won't do it, they are much more interested in doing something "for public demand"... But the majority of people are drawn to scalpers - accordingly, tick history - most likely to be done. But such charts - unlikely.

About the ticks - completely agree with you. Although, I can load a tick history into my "tester". But it is not about scalpers, but about HFT (High-Frequency Trading). There we use either inclusion to the market or stop orders. With these methods it is impossible to consider slippages, as they are not constant but depend on the data flow and news, therefore it can be said that the tester model does not work for this trading method.
 
joo:

Hang on. I don't see the point of comparing GAs yet. When opponents with other types of algorithms come, then we'll talk, although I doubt it, because none of them have gone beyond "smart words" from the wiki.

There you go. I told you - blabbermouths.

They won't.

 
joo:

There you go. Told you - blabbermouths.

They won't.

That's what I thought too, that's why I wrote:

But for the sake of the experiment, I'm willing to be a third.)

if there's a second one.)

If you mean me for the competition, it's trading week for me and I have all my attention on trading. I was just checking on it once again. That's why I can't participate. I attached the archive with my algorithm earlier. I compared it to yours in terms of speed and it was obviously faster and more accurate. You can see from the code that it is many times smaller and more compact. And there are the same measures against repeated combinations and so on. Reading other people's codes is very hard, and besides it's all there for yourself, without any explanations. I would be interested in participating in "formula races", but please forgive me, as if earning my daily bread comes first. I can't participate in the filming of 'Fast and Furious 8' (just kidding).
 
Can you give me an approximate timeframe for this functionality, I can't wait, I read the news every day...
 
unreal:
I can't wait, I've been reading the news every day... I've been talking about it since the exhibition, but it seems to have passed a couple of days ago.
Many people are waiting, but why the silence - it's unclear, it's possible to give an approximate deadline. (
 
what news on the promise?
 
Renat Fatkhullin:
We have decided to open interfaces to write our own datafeeds for MT5.

You will be free to write your own data sources, including rltime data sources. This will allow any data to be plugged in, including detailed history and Level2 tumblers.

By default we will provide a number of in-house datafiles, including offline ones. Virtual characters will also be available in the tester.

All this is free of charge, of course.

Renat, I remember in 2011 you flat out refused such an idea. They say that you have to ask your broker to order a gateway and translate it. The situation probably requires more flexible solutions.

The question is whether the "standard" set from MKs will be limited to Forex tickers or will there be shares?

Another request, one way or another there are more and more stocks in MT5, do you plan to make it a standard feature to build a custom index from arbitrarily collected stocks.

I'm talking about this as Bloomberg's trivial web interface can do this.
