The issue is that an internet issue alone, a user can control, and solve, GSB servers is outside a users control, standalone is more a debugging tool or a last resort if managers does not work for some reason. I would echo back Randys concerns for a improved or changed redundancy structure.

Its also very crucial that one can test and run older manager version, regardless of when they was released, in my case, i have a library of systems spanning back several years, and i save a copy of each manager version that was used for a system, and also refer back to special version in my research papers in order to at any time go back and test and debug opt settings. If this, as it seems now is taken away, its very much a problem for me in my development with GSB.

Finally, if there is an accident, or something unforeseen happens to yourself, then either this custom gsb version can be sent by you, and because of this forced expiry, anything running will stop working.

I think and hope that these concerns are seen as valid.

If support is a concern, then a better idea is to charge for support on anything older to 3month old versions.

Thanks for a great product and all your hard work Peter, for making GSB as good as it is.

Hi Daniel
If you greatly need a old build, I will get it to you. I do have some sort of redundancy plans for myself, but its a work in progress
Charging for support for an old version just adds more hassell for all.

Missing SessionTimeCalcs


Peter,

It's been a while since I've looked at session times and noticed that when I import GSB_SCRIPTS_2022_2_16+WITHUPDATEDGSBSYS1ES_V1.21.ELD into tradestation, I still do not see the SessionTimeCalcs script which calculates the bar ranges and volumes for identifying candidate trading sessions. Do you know where I can find this script?

Thank you!

Its very often that i actually run older managers, but thank you for clarifying then that i need to request this manually from you in future as i need them.

If there is no redundancy in place, right now.
I would at least like to have current version that can run regardless of unforseen accidents etc.

Can i please request current version standalone and manager, as a version that will enable me to run this, regardless of active license or connection to GSB servers. That enables me to feel a bit less vulnerable.


Thanks for your understanding Peter.

Testing several runs simultaneously, with System Builder


Suppose there is a powerful computer and the option to wait even a few weeks for results.
Is it possible (and what is the amount of options) to test several runs simultaneously, with System Builder?

@peter,

1: if i wanted to use daily bars with daily OHLC and volume... (so i dont want to create 390 minutes from 1 minute bars)
How exactly would my setting need to be in GSB ?

If we use ES as an example, what settings is needed to make this work ?

It has been discussed many times, but never managed to understand how this can be achieved.

2: Same question but for night session (with normal intraday data=.. i have never been able to get a proper run on GSB using the night session for example ES, could you please share an opt setting that enables a user to run the night session properly please ?

Thanks

@Daniel
The only way to do it is 390 etc min bars. either 1 x 390 or 390 x 1
Night session you could run 23?? hours of 30 minute date
or daily bars or 1380 minute bars. (assumes 23 hours in the day which is a guess)
I dont see what the issue is with this.

@Yishke
this can be done. I ask why?
GSB automation is very good at doing this. IE right now Im testing many secondary filters / times in one run that will take some days to complete
see https://trademaid.info/gsbhelp/GSBAutomation.html
see picture of current run on CL.

In practice I found its not good to do two total different builds, purely because my mind does not multi-task as well.
If you run two seperate builds, you can be fighting for the same workers. (fine but tends to mean only one manager will work at a time unless you cap the amount of workers each manager can use)

@Peter

Thanks for feedback

1: So my intention was to feed GSB with non intraday data, and daily EOD bars, so shall i understand that this is not possible ?

2: Perhaps i was unclear, lets say i wanted to trade 1645-0930 Symbol ES, both for data session and trade time, this is not my world an easy setup in GSB.. i have tried multiple times over the years, and in my book, this is not possible for me to achieve, please prove me wrong :)

1) its possible when your use the symbol.minute.format only. You could in excel add a time field if none existed, then export the data again
2) I dont see why 1645 to 930 wouldnt work, assume 930 is the eod time
make this your session time in mc/ts and export the data

@Peter

1, Not understanding you here, Could you upload a example csv file that will work with GSB to feed daily bars, and what setting in "Price data window" ? Multiplier, session and timeframe ? as you can see, its lots of unknowns here

2, It does not work, i have tried this for years, and in multiple configurations. So i have given up. Could you kindly upload an example opt setting that is will work when using overnight sessions.. I have tried 24h data file and then limit session to 1645-930, i have tried data file only 1645-0930, and i have tried 24h data and 24h session but limit trades to1645-0930... i have tried a trillion different combinations including different settings for contract setting to use lst bar as 0930.. i have tried it all... so i am stating, that its not possible for me to run this. I would love to be proved differently :) If you please could upload an example opt setting for ES that shows how this shall be configured, i would be extremely happy.

Thanks, appreciate your kind help

@Peter

The mentioned config i have tried.. as mentioned above, i have been trying for years to solve this, in an unimaginable amount of configs, hence me needed to be shown that its possible for a fact. But i had 2 points above that needs to be addressed please.

Peter, You asked why
It because I was interested to know if theoretically, it is possible to test separate tests, for different symbols and different indicators.
Not interested in data and period shortcuts.
Interested in checking data over a wide period of time and as mentioned different symbols and different indicators.
I wanted to know if it is possible simultaneously, even if it will take SEVERAL:smilegrin: days

@yishke.
Im not clear on the point of what your asking, as you have something very specific in mind.
You can run multiple managers at the same time with different symbols or indicators.
You can run gsb with data1 and data2, but where it will genetically choose data1 or data2 (or more) to trade
ie es as data1
nq as data2
it will produce systems that trade both on es and nq.


This is not at all the same as data1 with data2 as second data stream, but we always trade on data1 (this concept however is a bad idea)

@Peter
I think you misunderstand something, what my two points is about, is not about any excel file. I have no question for now about the sent excel file, thats unrelated to this, since the excel file is about adding G and H periods i beileve.

My two points above, raised ,is about feeding EOD bars into GSB, and me not understanding your answer in regards to that, point 1.

And then point 2, is about, night session.

Kindly re read my post please, if something is unclear to you, i would be happy to explain better if its something you want ?

Thanks for letting me know
There is an issue that 2 users have with the current build.
Number of workers drop off, and systems per minute gets slow.
Im going to fix else roll back in 24 hours.
Its working fine for me though which made it harder to identify.
My cloud is busy for some time still doing CL work, so you wont get much free cloud at the moment
