Developing a multi-currency Expert Advisor (Part 22): Starting the transition to hot swapping of settings

Developing a multi-currency Expert Advisor (Part 22): Starting the transition to hot swapping of settings

In the previous two parts of our article series, we made serious preparations for further experiments with auto optimization of trading EAs. 

In this new article, we will delve into the implementation of a new mechanism for loading parameters of final EAs, which should allow for partial or complete replacement of the composition and parameters of single instances of trading strategies, both during a single run in the strategy tester and when the final EA is running on a trading account.

I don't have the "attach file" option. I guess the problem is that I'm on a computer and not on my phone?

Charts are related to brokers (as well as the price on the charts). That's why you should delete charts when switching from one trading account to another account of another broker, and then open them again when connecting to another trading account.

As for the demo account (I see on the screenshot you have a demo account) - brokers often give such accounts for a limited time, and if the account is no longer valid - the demo account can be opened again.

---------------------

By the way, a demo account on MetaQuotes-Demo is mainly used not for trading, but for upgrading MT5 to a new beta build and for testing MT5 beta builds. Therefore, if you are not a beta tester (i.e. you are not waiting for some possible bug fixing in the future release version) - there is no need to switch to MetaQuotes-Demo.

--------------------

And now, you can stay on InstaFinance demo account, but close the charts and open them again. If connection to this demo account fails, open a new account or contact the broker (because it happens that the broker changes the server name for connection).
