Optimizer Improvements
We've released a number of minor improvements to the Optimizer!
- The Optimizerstep direction is now automatic. If a dimension's end value is below its start, the step flips to count down for you — and flips back if you move the endpoints the other way.
- The Profit TargetandStop Lossnow only appear as optimizable parameters when the exit condition on the backtest actually has one set. This ensures that any additional Profit Target and Stop Loss options are respected (such as capping profits/losses or requiring consecutive hits).
- When an optimization is stopped for exceeding its compute budget, it now tells you how far it got before timing out to help you adjust for a successful run.
- The compute time estimator has also been updated for better accuracy forecasting when optimizations are likely to timeout.
