How to Install and Use code library for recording balance and equity charts with optimization criteria
1. Storage: Place library files in the MQL/Libraries directory to ensure they are accessible to your projects.
2. Implementation: Include the library in your code using the #import directive, ensuring you match the exact function names and parameters.
3. Compilation: Ensure the library is present in the directory before you compile your main EA or script, as the compiler links them during this phase.
4. Management: Keep libraries organized in sub-folders if you manage many custom functions to maintain a clean project structure.
Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What is a library file used for? A: Libraries store reusable code modules, allowing you to centralize common logic used by multiple EAs or indicators.
Q: Is a library executable? A: No, libraries are non-executable files containing functions; they must be imported into an EA, indicator, or script to function.
Q: Can I update a library while the platform is running? A: You should compile your EA or script after updating a library to ensure the latest code changes are integrated.

this code library is designed to enhance your expert advisor's capabilities by recording balance and equity charts and calculating additional optimization criteria.Also recommended: session time filter library - similar library with strong performance on MetaTrader 5.
to integrate the library, follow these steps:
- download the advanced optimization report saver.mqh file and save it to the terminal folder \mql5\include\.
- add the connection code to your expert advisor, placing it below the last line or in a suitable location.
- insert calls to the exported functions within the existing functions in your expert advisor. if there are no functions, create them.
the save_add functions enable you to incorporate your custom criteria into yourreport. for instance, consider the following example:
- copy the moving average expert advisor from the examples folder (\mql5\experts\examples\moving average\moving average.mq5) and rename it to moving average charts.mq5.
- add the provided code to the new file, specifically within the ontick() function after the checkforopen() line.
the process is straightforward and should only take a few minutes.
after integration, you can perform optimization and observe the following:
- save statistics: this parameter controls the collection of statistics.
- pixels in balance and equity charts: this setting determines the width of mini-charts in pixels.
once optimization is complete, you can generate a report and view the results. if there are numerous lines, only three horizontal lines of average values will be shown (three at the top and three at the bottom).
to improve readability and reduce calculation time, consider using an enumerator (enum) for input variables with varying steps. for example, using the sequence 1,2,3,5,7,10,15,20,30,50,70,100 reduces 100 lines to 12, resulting in faster calculations and smaller file sizes.
the provided enum version of the expert advisor demonstrates this improvement, showcasing how the result with movingperiod = 15 stands out with the highest average and maximum values. however, it's important to note that backtest results may not always translate to forward test performance.
