Hi All,
New member here, just getting used to the RC4. Really like this software. I’m wondering if the developers have ever considered supporting GPU use instead of just CPU for strategy generation?

@Roberto, look closer at his myfxbook statements, he has many and most of them is in a loss. Seems He ads and removes funds to make it look good. Just another scumbag scammer probably stole his Cuda cards aswell.
Hi mabi, maybe, but my attention was on the fact that he uses all those gpu core for Deep Learning. I know that SQ doesn’t use DL, but it will be interesting to see results. I’ve read in the roadmap that there is a futuru integration with tensoflor and something similar. Interesting
GPU settings is for the GUI only. SQ do not support GPU for many reason which have been explained before by developer here on the forum due to request from users of GPU implementation ( my self included). I believe the main reason is that GPU like CUDA does not provide any support for on the fly generation of a random number by a thread but mainly that you cant back test a strategy using GPU due to Mark.
Hi!
can someone explain what “Accelerate using GPU” actually does? from my testing it doesn’t improve performance. Maybe some particular settings need to be set to use GPU potential?
BTW I’ll actually just add that GPUs should be mining Ethereum, not running Asirkuy. 😀
Just having fun.
Pending live stats….
I try to stick close to what I’ve read from traders who been successful for 20+ years. Is Daniel successful in building systems? It seems he writes articles about what’s not successful (and only data mines them?). Seems like hes still on the journey like many of us.
Yes indeed, but most of the time these are manual traders…. Daniel´s systems are picking up lately it seems, his approach is different, they data-mine on GPUs in the community, hence can test millions of combinations within a few minutes / hours. They explore the whole possible space of combinations by brute forcing it on this network of GPUs. Once a profitable system is found, they right away boot-strap the underlying data for a few million times and the system has to do well on all those data-sets as well, which eliminates mining bias by ~98%. Only then a system is being traded live, so far they have a few hundred fullfilling these and are making money if looking at the MyFxBooks of a few of the users that publish their portfolios (which you can freely compile with different portfolio theory algos).
I am a member too and don´t see it as competition. The tools Asirikuy has to offer add perfectly to SQ. There are MANY things Asirikuy´s tools can do that SQ can´t (GPU usage for PA strategies, neural networks in the Framework and being able to use DLLs and C++ code, community data mining and DMB measurement) and many that SQ has but Asirikuy doesn´t offer. It´s perfect addition so far for me. One thing is clear though: you have to be VERY tech savy (actually could go so far to say you should be a computer-geek) for the Asirikuy tools as many of them are command line based and run in Python, etc. For me that´s no problem, but for some it might, Asirikuy doesn´t offer everything under one graphical interface like SQ does.
can I back test / forward test / perform Monte Carlo analysis on my EAs with one of your software? with my indicators? and maybe using renko bars and other type of bars? in a fast multithreaded multicore 64 bit environment? and even GPU accelerated?
yes… I’m sick of mt4

I investigated it for some time because it would bring quite big speedup, unfortunately GPUs are not made for this kind of computations.
Not everything can be improved using GPUs, GPUs are good for making relatively simple mathematic or matrix operations, but backtesting a strategy is much more complicated and requires features that are very slow in current GPUs.
Sic! And for what did I bought those 2 new GPU on SLI connection ? 🙁
Beside I use I7 3.2ghz , 8gb RAM Kingston HyperX, 500gb HDD and two Nvidia SLI.
And its still a laptop.

Hi, I am new into this but I was wondering if one day it would be possible to use the power of our GPU (graphic card) in order to make calculations. I know there is a language (CUDA from Nvidia) to program a GPU. What do you say about this?

Risk Disclosure:
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.
Hypothetical Performance Disclosure:
Hypothetical performance results have many inherent limitations, some of which are described below. no representation is being made that any account will or is likely to achieve profits or losses similar to those shown; in fact, there are frequently sharp differences between hypothetical performance results and the actual results subsequently achieved by any particular trading program. One of the limitations of hypothetical performance results is that they are generally prepared with the benefit of hindsight. In addition, hypothetical trading does not involve financial risk, and no hypothetical trading record can completely account for the impact of financial risk of actual trading. for example, the ability to withstand losses or to adhere to a particular trading program in spite of trading losses are material points which can also adversely affect actual trading results. There are numerous other factors related to the markets in general or to the implementation of any specific trading program which cannot be fully accounted for in the preparation of hypothetical performance results and all which can adversely affect trading results.
