I know that max F-F are in the 12,xxx,xxx's and now can only see 9,xxx,xxx as the top value and then a number of 11,xxx,xxx. The next time I did the sort, the first file shows up as 6,xxx,xxx and the rest 11,xxx,xxx.

Something is broken in the sort functions that the programmer is using underlying the application. I can'd do any more debug from here since I don't have access to the program files


Are you sorting while build systems? GSB sort is not continual, but one off event.
You could copy all systems to favorites and then sort, or pause manager etc.

Contract List & Data errors

Not sure if this is bug per se, but getting data errors when I setup data streams in beta (I usually just extract to a new subfolder eg GSBManager.50.26, is this right, should i do that or extract on top of current GSB directory?).

When I run the beta & go into data to set up a data stream I get error message when try to exit on the "ES.30 - IDX.30 - SPX.30" data set included by default in build regarding IDX & SPX data ("Invalid price data...a value of IDX cannot be found in contract list"). I found the beta contract list is missing entries for IDX & SPX, had to delete that data option from list to work. I also can't find any data files referenced for these in Price Data directory in either beta or current build. Not sure if I missed something?

update...I backed up the current version 49.12 contract & price list to beta data directory which removed error (I don't have any of my own data yet, just assumed beta was same data). However still no data for the IDX & SPX files referenced so that seems to be missing, or are these no longer used? Do we still do any multi-market validation? Should these be removed from future versions?

Thanks, Dave

As you dont have data, you can just remove spx and idx. Data2 is not needed for ES, but its important for markets like CL.
I feel multi interval is better than multi market, but both are valid to use. Contracts list had to have data2 added in newer version since we used bigpointvalue in the CloseD filters

Can anyone tell me how Secondary filter counter trend's are going? My limited testing showed it worked well as a indicator but not as SF. I havnt put much work into this though. If there is no great response CounterTrend will be hidden unless your in GSB admin mode.

Hi, interesting you mentioned data2 not needed for ES? How do you add Close-CloseD filter then? Do you change no of indicators to 4 & force C-cD to be included? This would speed up backtesting not needing a 2nd dataset.

Closed uses data1. For es set seccondary filter to closeD.
I use 3 indicators but your welcome to vary this. 3 will be a bit faster than 5 and use less ram.

Not totally clear in what your saying.
you cant set a specific data stream as SF unless you have only 1 data stream. SF is vip to get right.
ES,nq,er,emd,dow etc need closed or closedbpv
Energies need GA with and or all of the CloseD filters.

Ok I think I have mixed up my understanding of 2nd datastream & SF then, I thought the Secondary Filter indicators were being only applied to the 2nd datastream if specified eg SPX in the demo data. The model is being optimised across both datastreams then.

Walkforward query - on a different issue, can I confirm which timeframe WF is conducted on, when I run WF & tick that option on graph it shows WF OOS & WF Current but when check verify & return to graph the WF chart shows ES29, i thought it would be based on 30m? (Opt price data is 29, 30 & 31m, Opt price data is false).

Under testing
Updates in last build (v50.40)

1. CloseLessPrevCloseDBpv (x 20) and CloseOverPrevCloseD (/ 50) level range normalized to 0:100:2.5 to match GA

2. ShareKeys default set to gsbcloud1_password1234, gsbcloud3_password1234

3. Auto include last week exceptions (max 200 files, most recent) on support ticket

4. Replaced CounterTrend (used in old/saved systems only) by CounterTrend2 (used in new systems), compatibility preserved.

5. Normalized CounterTrendUN2 (by 2x-100) to use range of 0:100:2.5 and match GA and other CloseD based SFs

6. Contracts list updated

7. Implemented SMPT and encrypted username/password in app settings.

8. Implemented Favorite B.

9. Set "SF-Indic. Weight" and "SF-Entry Level" parameters hidden from users, at least temporarily to avoid users' confusion (as with closed BPV * 20) until range limiter implemented

10. Some fixes here and there, mostly gui-related

known bug.colors on gui gone in favourites

The public cloud wont run managers older than 50.40. This was an accident but the older versions dont work with each other.
I will try to get some older versions on the public cloud in the next 24 hours.
Bottom line is you want the public cloud, upgrade.

Regarding the hidden parameters from users: Can I expect GSB set up a proper range in case of multi symbols analysis or better use the old version? ( I am not very happy to not be able to set up those)

Yes. Same applies to close /closed.
There was no perfect solution in this. We made hidden multipler so users. Can use 0 to 100 for all sf. There may be updates over time to this. For now just ignore the issue. It will work fine. Last solution gave more control and lead to many users screwing it uo

Dec 20 2018 out soon
50.44 is out with full installer. Bug fix on graphs x axis started at 1900 instead of start of data file.
Backup your C:\GSB\GSB (Managers)\Data\price data.txt file before you install, or use the non installer version.
This is a build designed for trial users, so it has advanced mode OFF by default

DEC 22 2018 50.47. Bug fixes. Likely this is the next stable release.
Graphs now change after slippage and commission changed. (right click over ride original settings)
No installer file.
There might be another build soon with no WF allowed on workers outside scheduler hours.
This is important if you run gsb scheduled to not run during trading hours.
workplace name to include your mac address. It means all gsb groups will be unique. Dont worry if you dont understand the minor implications of this.

1/1/2019 50.60 release.
This has trading price data. Lets say you build on 29,30,31 min bars, you are going to only trade on 30 min bars.
This time frame is used for export of systems, pa files. If blank the first selected price opt data will be used.

WF trade price data.
if 29,30,31 is used, then set this to 30 min. This will be used to calculate the dates for oos runs etc.
If blank then the first opt price data is used.
All of this also fixes a bug we have had for some time in wf, where we are getting the reports of one time frame, which is not always the one you want.


First time you start a new build of GSB, it will wait 30 seconds before doing anything. This is to not do things that give false triggers to anti virus programs.

Other small fixes and changes.

Subtle improvements to give more Cloud power. Thinks like reporting to me if workers are active or idle. This will enable me to tweak the cloud over time so the cloud users get the max cloud usage.

The license file was deliberately missing from the install files. Its gsb_ipp3.xml
Put this in the folder of you gsb...exe files. License file for trial users expired late last year and the new one has a different pattern. This might have caused issues for registered users.

50.67 out in a few days.
It has a fix to re submit any WF to the cloud that get canceled.
There was a bug where a wf might get canceled, and GSBram2 is going to kill some cloud workers from time to time if a machine runs out of ram or cpu

Jan 4 2019 50.66

Improvements to cloud wf.
I now did 900 WF, with any failures auto retried. 100% completed.
New help file.
The gsb registration file is not included, so you need to put this on top of your existing GSB files.
As of a few builds ago, I feel GSB is less ram hungry overall

50.60 Release


I ran the 50.60 release and with the system running, when I sorted on the F-F column and then highlighted the largest F-F, our old issue is back again with a random strategy is then substituted. I am running one manager and 4 workers, utilizing 90% CPU and 95% system RAM.

Same old issue is back. It also appears in 50.55. Did I so something different this time?

Running from the GSB in the C: Drive. No special SSD drive on this computer.
