Futures and forex trading contains substantial risk and is not for every investor. An investor could
potentially lose all or more than the initial investment. Risk capital is money that can be lost without
jeopardizing ones’ financial security or life style. Only risk capital should be used for trading and only
those with sufficient risk capital should consider trading. Past performance is not necessarily indicative of
future results

I've ran into a little problem, not sure how I did it or how to fix it.

I was trying to change the Price data file and some how stuffed something up, now when I click on it I get an error message.

Thanks.

i guess the app or opt settings are screwed. Mostly likely app settings.
Just reinstall the install exe again and it should fix it

Hi Peter

I’m trying to use manager and workers and while it is running lots of Exception: messages are coming up in notifications centre in windows. I’ve also noticed that the workers have created about 2000 unique systems each (5 workers) but they are not transfering into manager properly, manager is only showing 164 systems. Speed seams slow too, about 3000/min with 5 workers. But I get up to 5000/min with stand alone.
Is there some settings I don’t have set correctly ?

Cheers.

I think your internet connection to GSB sequal server is weak.go to command prompt
ping xeon3.zwag.biz -t
It that doesnt pick it, send me the exception files zipped up.
Are you on a laptop with wifi?

are you getting issues now?
Im running 82 workers right now with no execeptions.
Keep ping running. If you get exceptions, control c I think ends ping and gives the total error count.
zip up exception folder under gsb...exe manager and or workers.
check also the time stamps on your exceptions to see when they occured

When I did ping test before I had shut down GSB, now with GSB running ping test times out frequently and exceptions are coming up frequently also.
Ive attached ping test stats and zipped exceptions file

well thats your issue. use tracert xeon3.zwag.biz to see if you can find the issue.
and or ping your isp gateway (your router will tell you this)
and or use pingplotter app. (simplist option if your not techy)
Bottom line is this is a internet issue.

ok, I was only using local workers, I didn't open cloud worker. I thought it would run locally on my system, does it still connect through internet for something?

So I've run ping plotter and contacted my isp and the problem seems to be from maxing out my upload speed. I'm on adsl2+ with TPG and the max upload I can have is 1mbps.

just so I understand, when running workers, do they send the information back to the Manager via xeon3.zwag server? I assumed not running cloud workers would just be localised on my computer.

is there anyway around this? as NBN is not available at my address.

cheers.

how many worker are you running?
adding more filters to give less systems might help.
I will do a bandwidth check on my workers, but will be 24 hours

Hi Peter,

so earlier I was running 5 workers and gsb started up with default app settings on AllOosPass, so yes very loose settings.

I have since been doing some testing.

2 workers with app settings of ESsystemsTight,
5700 sys/m, 200-300kbs upload on Ethernet and no exceptions.

4 workers with app settings of ESsystemsTight,
7500 sys/m, 700-900kbs upload on Ethernet and no exceptions for 1hr 45min of running, then I stopped, all but 2 systems loaded into manager, did some walkforwards and then got a couple exceptions.

5 workers with app settings of ESsystemTight,
no good, well over 1mbps on Ethernet, lots of exception, just as bad as earlier.

Sql server down for a little while today and is not up yet. That may affect results. Bottom line is we will reduce cloud traffic before long

I can't seem to get Custom indicators working with the latest version 1.0.47.10. I Clicked "Tools >Custom Indicators>Generate Export Script..." like I have in the past. Created the .txt file and clicked "Tools >Custom Indicators>Load Exported Files" it popped up a dialog that said "0 Custom Indicator(s) loaded..."
I tried copying a .bin file that worked in a previous version of GSB and it did not work either.

CI is not working with multi data yet. Did you try with single or multi?

If it is NOT multi data then do a support ticket, under help

Cloud is up again, and we are looking into high bandwidth issue.

Recently updated to 47.10.

Decided to run a quick Standalone run for some strategies and ran into an issue with results not coming anywhere close to what GSB strategies are reporting.

I'm testing on ESU18 data from 12/1/2017 to 1/31/2018 with 3m resolution. I have 3m chart set to Exchange and made custom session for 800 to 1500. During GSB strategy building I set trading period dates 2017-01-02 to 2017-01-31 with Times set to 800 to 1500 and closing out EOD. I used ES 3m for both Data1 and Data2.

I placed random profitable GSB strategy in chart to make sure strategies are matching up as they should between GSB and TS results. They were almost polar opposite results.

I checked random dates and times for the ES 3m data I am using and it matched up with chart. I checked the GSB code and everything looked fine there too. I even changed the endDate in GSB code to make test against TS results as is recommended. I tried testing with Back-testing resolution on and off with 1m resolution and nothing changed. I looked at GSB reported trade times, prices etc. and most were very different than TS.

I have run out of ideas why these GSB results are so far off with TS results. All GSB strategies I put into TS reported as big losers compared to GSB results, which were polar opposite profitable.

I will attach the ES 3m txt file I am using.

Anybody with reason(s) and/or solutions for the issue I am having with GSB vs TS results is much appreciated.

Thank you.

I checked that it had MOC and it did but I also added setexitonclose just to be sure.
It didn't change anything.

By the way I am attaching a strategy (1 of hundreds) that doesn't match at all.

I sent you the Teamviewer info to your email.

Change the word inputs: to vars: in TS, and problem gone. One of the most common GSB user errors.
