3. Multysymbol Macroprogram: Conducts sequential testing by currency pairs specified in the 'testcommander' script array. Adjust the array size when adding or removing currency pairs.
4. Multyvariable Macroprogram: Tests by variables defined in the array. Set variable names and test values, leaving unused variables as ="" (empty).
5. Stabilitytest Macroprogram: Checks stability using three criteria: multysymbol, multy_data, and multy_tf. Parameters are sourced from corresponding arrays in the 'testcommander' script.
6. Oneoptim Macroprogram: Optimizes parameters, filters unprofitable trades, removes duplicates, and sorts results based on user-defined criteria. Generates a report in the 'report' folder.
7. Complex Macroprogram: Performs complex optimization, followed by testing, filtering, and sorting. It checks the best values for stability and outputs the top results to a report file.
The program ensures history availability and status checks before testing or optimization. It supports specialized optimizations, allowing command passing to the EA and immediate response retrieval during the process. Automatic optimization can be scheduled at specific times, and up to 10 variables can be tested and optimized simultaneously. Custom macroprograms can be added for tailored testing and optimization.
