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

Anyone knows what is causing this error message?
Since about a day i canat get any workers to build or connect to my manager, i just keep getting these error messages..
I have restarted the computer several tiimes, internet works great and everything else to, its just that the managers just keep seraching for workers, and nothing happens.. is this a general problem or issue on my pc only ?

Issue seems related to my RM, since it does not seem to be able to connect and i get these error messages without even starting a manager.


EDIT, I solved the problem myself, was internal network error that caused it..

I feel like I'm getting a lot of very similar systems... What is the best way to minimise duplicity? I have Max params sig dupl at 0 from your previous recommendation you have given me which I suspect is reason. What would default be? Is 0 best?

GSB can have very tight control over this, but near duplicates are good.
Reason is if a system is good, you get lots if very similar systems. ie might be same indicators, different oscillators.
Then use the family feature, and see what the family with the most memeber are.
Many members in the same family is good, but likely jsut take the first one (highest fitness)
see this post

Only works from favorites a,b,c,d
select systems, right click, create family.
The coulomb will appear

Hi Peter,

If I have multiple macros defined on app settings and "on opt completed" set to false, is it possible to run individual macros manually, one at a time?

Thanks

yes, just link a macro to one of the 6 macro buttons (and there are optional total of 3 groups of macros) then hit the small green run button to the right of m6 button

I am trying to develop systems during the night session, i understand it might not be optimal in terms of range.. however i would like perform a few test.. problem is that it is not working at all.... i have provided data from 1645 to 0930 Eastern time.. data file is good and checked... i set the Trading period Time: to 1645 - 0930..

I have set the moc to 0930 in trade data...

BUT no systems generated... i assume its something i am missing in terms of setting...

What setting do i need to allow systmes to be built for overnight sessions?

Thanks for helping out

Hi Peter,

I have noticed for ES system a Buy to Open / Sell to Open signal being generated at 15:00 hrs.
When we define session time 08:30 - 15:00, does "Setexitonclose" close all positions at 15:00 hrs or 15:15 hrs?

Thanks

Hi Peter,

When live trading ES system (.i.e for current contract month), do you use @ESU19 or @ESU19.D?

Thank you

@ESU19.D is the day seesion only. Thats what i use.
I think @ESU19 might also trade some holidays that still have data

best also stick with what the system was made on. (my data .d)
exceptions may be I think it was @ym where the data goes back another year or so compared to @ym.d

Hi Peter,

Today I used GSB's "top performing indicators" functionality for the first time.

Please explain, how does this work precisely?

I have been running a 50% IS + 50% OOS test.
After this I activated the "top performing indicators" functionality.

But what do the numbers show?
1. What period is taken into account? IS? OOS? Full period? Something else?
2. And what metric is used to calculate the list? NP/DD? Pearson? Fitness function?

Thanks.

Hi Peter,

Question on market / other time frame verification, what metrics does GSB analyze when it reports 8/8?

Thank you

I think I remember that GSB compares per verification item if it passes the verification filter. This is set in the left menu.

Hi Carl, you are correct. I was thinking of VSS. However my own tests showed VS was not helpful, but VSS was.

VSS is % degradation of fitness, VS is number of systems that pas the filter under VS performance metrics

Peter, a question about verification and VS, do you verify straight after the build for example the top 250 when out into D, or.. do you verify after the walkforward has been done?

Perhaps i am stuck in a thougherror... but i am unsure of if a verification done before WF is done, or a verification after WF is done, would be any different ? and if anything would change if i set USE WF Cur Params WFP, to YES for all systems before Verification...

Thanks

You can test if it works better after, but I felt before did. Let us know your results

I will, thank you.

Btw a proposal, after some time, and developing on several markets using noise bars, would it not be great when changing data stream, tp be able to have folders, so one could divide for example data into market folders for example ES, SI etc.. and perhaps even subfolders for timeframes.. it can get quite messy in the list after some time... what you think, good idea or bad?

Cheers
