Hello All,
I'd like to automatically pass inputs to and get results from the MT4 strategy tester and optimiser.
As an example, I'd like to:
1. optimise a strategy over a particular period
2. load the results in an external program and choose a set of parameters to use
3. run the backtester with the new optimised parameters and analyse the results
4. change the tester period (move it forward in time) and test the strategy
5. load the results back into the external program
etc etc.
Ideally I'd like to use the external program (c# or c++) to control the entire process so that the process can be repeated numerous times without any intervention.
Does anyone have any experience with remotely controlling the strategy tester, or do you know if it is even possible?
Thanks,
Michael
