I use MT5 Cloud Servers to optimize my ea, I prefer using "Every Tick" on Genetic algorithms. At times it takes 90 min to finish 3,000 iterations. What is the best time of the day/night to optimize? - page 2

It takes backtesting 3 minutes and 46 seconds to do it on "Every Tick" for the lenght of 2 weeks on 15 Min TF
It takes 13 minutes and 51 seconds on "Real Tick". I only use "Every Tick"or 1 Min OHLC.
It takes 10 seconds to do it on 1 min OHLC
Your thoughts?
"Every tick" mode is useless for reliable backtests, only suitable for technical testing.
If your EA really needs ticks, use Real ticks. Otherwise 1 Minute OHLC.
Your EA is really very slow, unless it does very heavy things.
