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

Hello,

Do you know of any pro-trading accounts, financing accounts, etc. to be able to connect TS?

alertmon Session End Time


So looking for clarification on what the "Sess. End Time" field should be set to.

I'm on the US east coast, so EST/EDT.
I have charts on ES & NQ, which are central time.
The charts are set up with Exchange Time, and a 0800-1500 session time.

So if the last "bar" on the chart is 1500, what time should I be putting in the "Sess. End Time" field, 3:00PM or 4:00PM ?

I thought it went on chart time, not system time, but it's looking like things aren't working as expected. I also have one chart that uses the "Regular Session" and exits at 1600 bar. I had 4:00PM set, but it exited at the 1500 bar at 4:00PM EDT, and the strategy was still active and shows it exits at the 1600 bar. So it appears to use computer system time rather than chart time, so I'm looking for confirmation/clarification.

@brk,

I assume your talking about alertmon not TMA?
alertmon & tma work on local pc time. On alertmon i you right click a row and edit, you can see the times that are used in the file.
tma must be set to local time.
if stuck, we can do anydesk.com session

Actually I'm talking about TMA. So it uses the computer system time. I thought things were acting strangely. I thought it used "chart" time. So the 1600 on the chart (4pm) I need to have set to 5pm eastern time.

I need to fix all my charts... They're all currently "chart" time, not local time.

My programer showed me this.
Until someone thats very skilled can show us, i havnt time to invest in this project
https://bitsum.com/
https://bitsum.com/portfolio/coreprio/

Here are the possibilities.
Intel i9 and amd, it may allow ts to use all CPU cores, rather than the max of 32 on TS
It can over come the annoying feature of windows 11 that puts background processes at very low cpu priority, which is bad for GSB as it runs slower unless you have workers set to tiled mode in gsb resource manager.

also see see this
https://youtu.be/LB6qWhP35KE

I can say that I spent 2 minutes on this and process lasso put gsb managers with high cpu to low priority, which is the opposite of what I want.
This doesn't imply lasso is no good, it just means it needs tweaking




"DLM is designed for loads that don’t max out all available CPU cores. Applications that put a full load across the entire CPU could perform marginally worse. This is because when the entire CPU is loaded, there are no CPU cores to prioritize threads to since all must be utilized. Thus it may be ideal to exclude some highly multi-threaded applications."
in plain english, apps that use full cpu should not use dlm, but ts likely should
GSB seems to use single numa (of interest only if you have >1 physical cpu)
and this doesnt matter a if mutiple workers are running as the load spreads over the numa. However im running about 7 managers at one time all doing nth dates etc
and the loading is not spread evenly over the numas (physical cpu's)

Good Evening,
I purchased EWFO after reviewing it for the full trial period. I'm having 2 problems one of which really needs immediate attention please. I got an email from Peter asking how I'd heard about EFWO and that there were some updates. My computer won't let me download them because its flagging them as a virus. Please tell me I didn't just download a virus on this expensive trading machine. Second, EFWO is slowing Multicharts WFO optimization down to a crawl. What should take 30 minutes I've been forced to terminate after 3 hours. It just gets slower and slower. I have a CPU use monitor up when I do work like this and it starts out at 100% and slowly slips down to under 10%. When I comment out the bits of code needed to operate EFWO the system runs fine. On the first security I optimized (M2K) it worked fine, no problems. On MES its not working. I've tried loading a different workspace, restarting the computer, nothing is working. I don't understand this problem. I would appreciate some feedback pretty quick please. Its frustrating to pay a good little chunk of money only to step right into some problems, one of which would be potentially very serious.

Hi Jason,

No worries. It's not a virus.

GSB has been causing virus messages in my Avira antivirus for years. False positives.
You probably can exclude certain directories in your antivirus software. This should solve your download problem.
I exclude my GSB directory in my antivirus.

Thank you Carl, I'll have to disable the feature in chrome for that location. I have added information on the other issue. It seems to be related to size. The WFO in multicharts that produces the issue is 1.47M tests long. It does not fail at 987k test. Not sure whats up with that.

Ok, new problem (in addition to the older problem that I think I have a bandaid for).
I have been using EWFO for a few weeks now (the trial period) and I've never encountered this problem. When I perform a walk forward analysis my OOS has 0 trades. After 7 years that seems improbable considering the backtest has 500 or so. Also, a lot of times EWFO hangs. Please help!

@JasonAlgoGuy
Ive never seen these issue before. we can either do anydesk.com remote session or upload the files and I test on my end
can you upload a performance report of the system, ans .z7ip (best) else zip the data files made by mc and send to me.
any screen shots with arrows to show the problem also good.

If i trade from two different vps machines with two different TS
Logons on the same futures account. Would that be any problem to the position match table (true/false) ? Or any other issue with that setup ? Thanks

if your talking about Trademaidautomation, i think tma will run fine

alertmon position match I think will be ok, but not certain.
why are you doing this?

ok i understand, we will probably allocate one part of the funds to a thirdparty TS system developer where they trade from their own VPS on our corporation TS account. And we will trade GSB and other systems developed by us on our own VPS but to the same TS account. To have several accounts would be inneffective for margin and other reasons. Just wanted to see if any risk when different machines trade on the same Futures account.

tma will work if multiple logins trade the same account on the same symbol.
Non TMA (standard ts execution) MIGHT work mixed with tma on the other machine, but alertmon match will certainly NOT work in this context.
That means you loose the second layer of error checking your live positions with theoretical.
I think it would be best practice to have TMA and alertmon on both VM

Hi Peter,

Since this morning GSB 68.24 seems to have an issue when I try to find the best primary filters by using the statistics option.

The count of the primary filters is completely off.

For example GSB just built 991 strategies. All 143 PF were active.
But in the statistics tab only 7 different PF are shown. Each 1 in the top and 1 at the bottom?

I tried a few completely different GSB tests on two different computers.

Thanks.

I have spent a lot of time on this intermittent bug. However when I got the bug it was there for all tests. The bug is fixed in the next release.
I will send you the next release in < 24 hours

Hi, i hade a small code part in a couple of systems that closed intraday systems "at close" when there are short trading days, cant find it :(
It is not used for swing systems i suppose since the exit is not affected.
