Leonardo da Vinci: "Simplicity is the hardest thing in the world; it is the ultimate limit of experience and the last effort of genius.

I, too, thought that if the result is achieved by simple means, it is the highest degree of craftsmanship. It's a pity we both turn out to be wrong).

If I'd have known, I'd have lived in Sochi © People's proverb

da Vinci was talking about something else, namely that a specialist, by virtue of his vast experience, does everything within his competence much more easily than a layman or even a dilettante.

The other compote is in the field of experiments, where nothing is known in advance and therefore one cannot be secured against mistakes. It is not as easy to achieve as in the tried and tested areas and many things have to be complicated because of ignorance. The new business is not skillful and cannot be skillful by definition. Market quotes are non-stationary and constantly changing, and therefore also belong to the field of experiments.

If it were not so, everyone would not work a long time ago, but would only spend money, which primitive Expert Advisors have earned them. However, trading is still a very risky area of investments, even for the very experienced ones, because every time you have to deal with previously unknown nuances. Another thing is that an inexperienced trader faced with surprise and unpredictability can do something stupid and try to handle the situation with his or her own naughty hands, while an experienced one will try to reoptimize advisors.

 
khorosh:
This is an incorrect comparison. A comparison should be made if the result is the same. And in your case it is different. Delivery speed and comfort is different. For example: If two EAs have the same quality indicators, but one of them has the code size 10 times less because of the simpler strategy, then we should give it the palm.
Does anyone care about the size of the Expert Advisor's code? It is more likely the amount of memory occupied, and even that only on the server.

Da Vinci was talking about something else, namely that a specialist, by virtue of his vast experience, will do everything within his competence much more easily than a layman or even an amateur.

The other compote is in the field of experiments, where nothing is known in advance and therefore it is impossible to be insured from mistakes. It is not as easy to achieve as in the tried and tested areas and many things have to be complicated because of ignorance. The new business is not skillful and cannot be skillful by definition. Market quotes are non-stationary and constantly changing, and therefore also belong to the field of experiments.

It is always easier for an experienced person to see a simple solution to a problem. I'm a fan of playing chess and it's amazing how an experienced chess master can quickly find the strongest and seemingly simplest moves that a not very well prepared amateur can't see.

I would choose advisors that have monitoring or signals. You can fit anything in a tester. And as for simplicity, what would you prefer for moving around, a simple scooter or a complicated but efficient car? :))

We are talking about a new EA, not even an EA, but a trading system, or part of it, a trading technique. So, we have nothing but history, and the only thing we have is history. That's why I believe that the fewer degrees of freedom - the less probability of fitting.

As for "scooter-car" - when the situation is completely known (everything is in order, there is gas, the road is normal, and so on) - the car, understandably. When the situation is completely unknown (it's not clear whether everything is in working order, or maybe there's no petrol, or maybe the road is half a metre wide, and so on), it's understandably a scooter.

I think the market is a lot more towards the "total unknown", and it makes more sense to take a scooter. Yes, if it suddenly turns out to be a wide highway in front of us - a person on a car will drift away ahead. Until the first narrowing of the road.

Who cares about the size of the EA code? More like the amount of RAM it takes up, and that's only on the server.
I think they do. All other things being equal, I will choose the one with less code.

We are talking about something else - the assessment of skill and professionalism of the specialist. Finding a simple solution is sometimes more difficult than finding a complex one.

No one has trusted monitors for a long time now. It is not a fact that this EA, which has monitoring, is not helped by hands or traded by another EA.

The tester has even less credibility. In the Market there are a lot of Expert Advisors with fantastic results in the tester but very poor results in the signals. However, many EAs are now available for rent, so you can rent them for a month and try them live. In general, you are right, there are no guaranteed methods for defining a profitable EA. Reviews cost 50 rubles on the freelancer exchange.

Maybe the following method would work - in the Expert Advisor, you can take screenshots once a minute, if it will work 12 hours a day, we get 12 * 60 * 22 = 15840 frames per month, that is 633 seconds of video. I have seen such videos on youtube.

......The reviews cost 50 roubles on the freelance exchange. .....

I wondered why people download my Expert Advisors and indicators and even buy them, but the review or some comments no one leaves. I think I got plenty of reviews and comments from other traders. I understand everything now. Thank you for the clarification. It turns out that the reviews should not be trusted. I'm like .... spending money on Yandex direct ads, and it turns out it's easy. You buy reviews and you're at the top of the list.
