In the default SMACrossover solution I can run Optimization project.

The console output result is like this:


So how does function MulticoreOptimizer.Optimize(...) find out the best parameter values like Length1 = 2 Length2 = 3 ?

And what should I implement if I want to optimize parameter values in my own strategy?

Thanks

Hi,
it depends on what type of optimizer you select before starting.
That window available in menu View-Optimizers.
Eg, Brute Force Multicore will iterate all cases and choose the best.

We are currently using OQ2014 version 1.0.5744.18357 which doesn't contain View->Optimizers in UI, but I can still run Optimization in SMACrossover, I have two questions:

1. How do I select Brute Force or Stochastic in the sample project:SMACrossover ->Optimization?
2. In my own strategy(not the sample SMACrossover), I can also feed many parameter like Length1,Length2,Length3... to MulticoreOptimizer and OptimizationUniverse, but there must be a parameter like TotalProfit for optimization to compare, so how do I feed this TotalProfit to the Optimizer?

Thanks

Hm, this is very old version, I advice you to update OQ2014.
All my answers are actual for latest version of OQ2014, now it is 1.0.7216
