Optimizer won't optimize anything...

Hi there,

I wrote my own EA and I'm testing it with MetaTrader Optimizer..

On simple testing it's okay, I got the report and graph.

But when I want to optimize the 2 main vars of my EA, the 2 panels related to vars optimization stay blank.

Here is how my vars are coded, out of any function:


I set up Initial Value, Step, and Stop in the Optimizer. Still no report and graph...

What did I miss?

If I had to guess, the values you're testing with are illegally close to market. MT brokers define a stoplevel, which is the minimum distance from market that you can set your takeprofit and stoploss.

Second guess? Your EA isn't actually using those values, so every run result is the same and MetaTrader is discarding superfluous results.

It works now, thanks!
