Mark, multitimeframe settings can create endless of combinations . You can generate on time frame combinations and instrument combinations. It would be good to be able to randomise mulitimeframe settings aswell doing it manually and go thru possible combinations one by one to find an edge using this excellent feature will take years i just realized.

Options could look like.
1. Select x additional charts to look at
2. Additional instrument should have a Randomize option to be selected from a group of instruments.
3 Additional Charts time frame should have a Randomize option as well.
Now we can just sit back wile SQ4 is doing all job.

Mark – what is the difference between “accepted” and “in databank”. If they are accepted don’t they move to the databank?

mabi – a good idea, I added it to ToDo list
accepted vs databank – yes, accepted strategy goes to databank, but databank size is limited. It keeps only top X strategies. So once databank is full and you are adding new strategy, it willl have to throw away the worst strategy in databank (if it is worse than this new one) and add the new one.
So if you are generating strategies for a long time you can have many more accepted startegies, but only top X of them will be saved to databank.

Mark, this is something else to look into then because when I begin generating the program will be showing results inder accepted but they are not appearing in the Databank for quite some time.

Could someone post a settings to find good eurusd m15 strategies with SQ4?
I’d like to have all robustness check enabled with right settings.
I’m getting problems in finding good settings.
Thank you

Sorry to disappoint you, is not working on lower timeframe, and I don’t know how much it’s accurate on timeframe H1… Still not good to put strategies live…

What I see as a huge problem is a fact that after few hours I have in databank 500 ” same” strategies…

I fully agree with you, this version have a big fundamental problem, the engine that generate strategies is very slow (compared with the version 3.8.2) and very limited, it can not generate great diversity… Try to make strategies with timeframe M1, nothing appears after hours in the databank, and another problem, the feature “close on friday/close at the end of day” it’s bugged, if you enable this option the strategies don’t produce any trade…
This version still a beta not a release candidate unfortunately…

I have created many strategies which close on friday, I dont think it’s bugged. Even though the diversity is not great I think they will improve it, also using different genetics settings can have a huge impact on diversity at least for me

Can you share a config file that works with “close on friday”? To prove that works? I can’t find any in a lot of time (100% no trades).

Hi Mark,
Any chance you can take a look at this for RC3? https://roadmap.strategyquant.com/tasks/sq4_1634
You marked it as fixed in Beta9, but on multi-symbol strategy generation it is still comparing price data from one symbol with another, for example the Close price of EUR/USD with the moving average price of the other symbol, USD/JPY.
Clearly, with values of price or derived from price, one instrument (symbol) cannot be compared with another in any meaningful way.
Thanks,
Mike
