Closed hundan2020 closed 2 years ago

hundan2020 commented 2 years ago

my question

I'm trying to test the demo, but someting got wrong. I've already open the dll load, and move the Pytrader_MT5_EA_V2.08.ex5 to script folder, set the params, and click the start, snapshot here

image

image

all seems fine, but when I'm trying to run the python client, the port is 1110 and server ip is 127.0.0.1, I found that the server seems like doesn't response, but the 1110 port is real listening image

as my debug, I found the problem is self.send_command(self.command) the code doesn't got any real response, then the python script just stuck here, how to solve it?

More general. EA in expert folder. Pytrader_API in your python project.

I see in a picture, that you put the EA in backtester of MT5 ? Is this right ?

If yes, you can not use this EA in MT5 backtester. The reason is MT backtester is already using socket port communication, Pytrader_API does also. This combination does not work. Explain me what you want to do/application.

thanks for answering

yes, I found the correct usage now, just attach to the chart, it works well now.

but I do wanna do a backtest with mt5 backtest function by python, so seems like our project can't support temporery or will never be able to imple? is that theoretically possible by tech?

Branly76 commented 2 years ago

MT5 does not allow EA's which use Socket ports. I tried myself. This is technical not possible according MT5 blogs.

Do you need Tick data for your backtesting ?

BR

hundan2020 commented 2 years ago

Tick data is better, but I don't understand... your reply sounds like there is some alternative solution?

the idea of using mt5 framework for backtest, is just for a intuitive effect, my alternative solution is using https://github.com/kernc/backtesting.py , is there better advice or some idea?

Branly76 commented 2 years ago

Tick data is probably the best, but you have many records. For example eurusd will be about 150k records for 24 hours, btcusd go up to 350 k records in 24 hours. Maybe i have something, but needs some work to for it.
