MASSIVE FLAW in cTrader 5 - Optimisation practically impossible now
MASSIVE FLAW in cTrader 5 - Optimisation practically impossible now
12 Jun 2024, 00:17
Since version 5, optimisation of bots where you're testing more than one or two parameters has become practically impossible thanks to the change where every single pass is now saved instead of just the top 20. This results in …\Documents\cAlgo\Data\cBots folders being flooded with gigabytes of temporary data - often well over 30GB per optimisation run.
At the very least there needs to be a setting to limit the number of top passes or simply revert back to the previous system.
Also, the fact that you now have to scroll down the tiny window just to see the equity chart is a complete pain too.
This is ridiculous and needs to be addressed ASAP.

Hi Eric,
This was implement after several user requests. If you have so much temporary data, it's probably because you are writing too much information in the logs. In this case, try to optimize your log usage.
