Unfortunately, it is not possible.

I made a suggestion for this, but it has not been taken into consideration yet.

Testing expensive robot "***" , reading the article, how to test.... Half of it is not clear at all ! Why are 3 blue bars of dots (on the example from the article) - is good? Why do they mean that only 3 parameters affect, and what parameters in Emezing robot affect ??? ?

When testing, I did not understand whether the robot is good or bad !!! When testing, it showed profit only on the euro-dollar pair, on all others - loss. Profit graph, for some reason, does not come out at all ! Drawdown up to 70%. Either the robot ***, or I test wrongly, and do not understand the results of the test.

The article opened my eyes a little on testing, but not to the end! It is not clear on one robot, you need a comparison with several to understand! Finish the article, because I, with my technical education and 2 years of higher mathematics, and did not understand to the end, where what in the test, where good, where bad.

You are kindly requested to write an article about testing in more detail ! Comparison of several robots, charts..... What is clear at a glance to a pro, is not clear to a beginner ! Write an article with a beginner ! So that he also understands !

Depends on... on the robot in the first place.

Can you tell me if I have written ontesterinit/ontesterdeinit blocks in the code of the Expert Advisor and uploaded it to the robot's market, then in the demo-version it is now impossible to optimise it in any way?
