Peter:
I must be doing something wrong when I save a system. Lets say I did a great run, and want to save one of the unique systems. I save it to the
correct directory, but when I try to re-open it in a GSB application, it doesn't seem to open again. Am I looking for it in the wrong place? This is
great if it works, but it has been an issue for me. Let me know the process you use to do this.
Thanks

This has been working for many months, but systems saved in some of the beta versions were not compatible with some later versions.
Try it on the last beta again. I tested it and it works fine. Had to select the contract it was under when I did load.

I still dont have a release with more new features, so uploaded 38.0 now.
A system can be saved to favorites. Just right click it.
You can force GSB to use a indicator. It means for example all systems can be made to use say cci.
Standalone / master / slave mode is simplified.

Next build will have process priority and CPU mask for workers. This means you can assign certain cores to workers.

Version 38 also has stop manager after x iterations occurs.

38.3 has GSB TS code that is simplified.
ie if days of the week or times not used, its no longer in the code.
Also if a WF is done, it shows the type of WF (genetic or random space) and the amount of iterations etc in the TS code.
It will be out sometime next week.
Late next week I hope to have updated documentation.

Peter: Just a quick note, I ran 38.0 last night and the right side of the build does not automatically update the Optimization section. The number
of restarts or unique systems does not automatically update. If you click on each field, you can get a number except for the restart field. The %
completion bar for each run does not work also. I am running the program in "Stand alone" mode.
Will this run allow us to use just a small set of indicators including custom ones? Very important feature to me

This is fixed in 38.3
You should now be able to run a small set of indicators, though im not sure the value of forcing GSB to use them. GSB should use them if they happen
to be the best ones. Forcing them to be used was intended to improve an existing system, rather then force to be used.

Just posted now. I get many builds I dont post due to critical bugs, or a new build not being far away.
This build has no installer yet, but should be in c:\dropbox\{GSB-Workplace-Test}
You can put to another location if you change the shared data paths, and data file paths etc.
I have not tested this build much, and was in a hurry before I fly back form NZ to AU
There are lots of bug fixes and small enhancements, separate exe for manager / worker / standalone.

The Machine resources of the stand alone version of 38.19 still does not update. Also, the % completion bar at the bottom still does not run. I may
not understand why the master slave approach is so important, but I would think that the stand alone version should be the one that is most important.
At least that is what I thought I was purchasing. Right now, I have no system that runs correctly and it just seems that in a direction to make sure
you are using all the resources, the original intent of the system has been placed on the back burner.
Please indicate to me what version I should use that runs with Custom indicators and the appropriate walk forward, for this stand alone does not
represent what this system was a few months ago. I am pretty frustrated right now, so let me know what direction you are taking this program. As it
stands right now, the stand alone is unusable. I have no need to run it on a LAN or drop box version, but the installer only allows that to happen.
This is the second time I have told you about the resource section and it is still not corrected, which is contrary to what you stated a few versions
ago. Please let me know when this stand alone version is usable and it will allow me to place the files where I want them to go, not to be confused
with my dropbox directory.

I've been away for a while and haven't tried the new versions of GSB. In 37.29, I had the same problems noted by jptann. This was so, whether I used
data from the dropbox folder or the Lan.
At this point, it is not clear where the programme files are to be placed. According to a previous doc, the correct place is:
c:\dropbox\gsb-workplace-test\gsb (managers), with sub-folders for gsb (managers) and gsb (workers).
Presumably, the new exe files should overwrite those in the 2 sub-folders. I don't like the higher-level folder being called gsb (managers), but I
haven't changed it in case the programme uses the specifically named path.
As for the data path, is this the data path that is still supposed to work?
c:\dropbox\gsb-workplace-test\data (dropbox shared folder)
where the data is placed in the "Price Data" sub-folder.
Personally, I'm not in favour of using dropbox and would rather put my data on a Lan drive.

I tried a run with all the issues on stand alone 19 and got an error message in a DOS box that said some directory did not have the proper
permissions. Run terminated about half way through. I would suggest that you remove this release from the non-paid set users because it does not do
what it sets out to do. I am going to try it with one manager and three workers and see if it does the same thing. I suspect the issues we pointed
out will be fixed in the manager worker version. We will see

Carl: I did also, but the right side was not updating and I got a Dos error box error half way through. I am using windows 10 also. I will clean up
my files and directory and try a clean new install
Did you use any Custom indicators?

New update: I removed all of my old directories, including ones in One Drive and just did a clean install on 38.19. I did not change any of the App
Settings and the Op settings that came with the installation, and did not update any of the files Peter used. The system is operating as advertised,
and will be finished in one hour. Everything seems to be working on the stand alone and the right side is updating properly. I am achieving 3.9K
systems per minute!
My next step will be to add my two custom indicators and change the data files to more current ES ones. I will report back after the next run.
After that, I will change the App settings and Op settings to a tighter view and see if everything is still correct.
Obviously, my first installation over some older installs was having some conflicts. Hopefully the next three steps will continue with no issues. No
reason to have each run go to completion.
1. First test, just run standard right out of the installation. Did not change anything.
2. Second Run: Change the data to more up to date data from TS. Will report after this run

Test 2 is working above. I downloaded a new ES 30M file and a SPX 30M file to update data through 171013. Still in day trade mode.
3. Test three is I will add two custom indicators, change the app settings to have more detail so I can add additional operators (enable divide) and
stay in day trade mode. Everything else the same

Test 3 is working fine. I guess the clean install was the ticket. Peter, sorry for the "grouchy' post above. Late at night and was frustrated.
I will let test 3 run to conclusion. I forgot to change the number of restarts, so I will stop this run and modify that also. I will save this as a
new OP file. After this run completes (still working now updating with the 10 restarts) it will run to conclusion. Seems to be running normally with
the given App file.
test 4 will be for swing trades
test 5 will be with more restrictive App file.
I will report back when all tests are completed

A lan drive is better than dropbox, but most of us have idle computers in data centers, and development computer in our home or office.
The docs are updated to show the new paths. You can change these.
Dropbox also backups all your data.
You need to set the shared folder on master and worker to
c:\Dropbox\GSB\Data (DropBox Shared Folder)\
or c:\dropbox\gsb-workplace-test\data (dropbox shared folder) etc
and the data in
c:\Dropbox\GSB\Data (DropBox Shared Folder)\Price Data

There a a number of significant bugs on 38.19. Most are fixed in 38.20 but not the fact that the right hand side GUI doesnt always display Unique
systems and some other metrics.
I'm going to wait till this bug is fixed in 38.22 build. Should be soon but not today.
If anyone is urgently after the 38.21, I will release it.
Known bugs
Sometimes systems from workers don't pass through to managers.
Other issues with metrics from right hand side of GUI not working.
exception errors.
Default settings are too tight on backtest termination, and not ideal on training.
