Hello,
I am trying to understand how the MT4 tester is working.
- When I am using the Optimizer and I have set several parameters to be optimized why do I see 3 numbers for the progress instead of 2? For example I see 23 / 1280 (1600)? I expect to see 23 / 1600. What is 1280 here?
- After the optimizer finishes I do not see even the results of 1280 passes. I see only the results of 320. "Skip uselss results" is unchecked so I see also passes with negative profit. In Journal tab I see message "optimization stopped, 768 cache records were used, 768 cache records rejected". But I haven't run the optimizer with similar parameters before and the code of the EA is now different anyway. What does this mean?
- What can be the reason to get a different profit when I run a single test compared to the profit which is shown for the pass with same parameters when using the Optimizer?
Thanks in advance
