backtesting - optimizations custom parameters
16 Nov 2021, 06:26


my bot has a number of custom variables

 

- i'd like to drive these from input parameters set on the optimisations UI. (i.e. so I can run many scenarios without changing the bot code).

 

Essentially - I can run 1000's of different scenarios to determine which config gives best outcome on a specific symbol .

Hi blockchainTrader1,

Thanks for your post. However it is not clear to me what the question is. Can you be more specific?

Example: I want to pass custom double ThresholdPercentage into the CBot - so the bot only buys and sells every x percentage diff in price.

Then I want to change the custom variableThresholdPercentage for each CBot run using the Automation Optimizations functionality - so I can determine which one gives me the highest profit at the end of each run.

Hi blockchainTrader1,

You can use enums for this purpose.
