Info

The Population-based optimisation algorithms is a Script for MetaTrader 5 that a list of implemented optimisation algorithms: ans (across neighbourhood search) cla (code lock algorithm) p_o_es ((p+o) evolution strategies) cta (comet tail algorithm) sdsm (stochastic diffusion search m) esg (evolution of social groups) sia (simulated isotropic annealing) acs (artificial cooperative search) tsea (turtle shell evolution algorithm) de (differential evolution) cro (chemical reaction optimisation) bsa (bird swarm algorithm) (po)es ((po) evolution strategies) bso (brain storm optimisation) woam (wale optimisation algorithm m) aefa (artificial electric field algorithm) asbo (adaptive social behaviour optimization) coam (cuckoo optimization algorithm m) boids (boids algorithm) gwo (grey wolf optimiser) bga (binary genetic algorithm).

Usage

This tool is typically used for enhancing chart analysis and decision making.

Platform

This Script works exclusively on MetaTrader 5 (both build 600+ and newer versions).

Setup

Place the downloaded file in MQL5/Scripts folder via File ? Open Data Folder in MetaTrader 5.

How to Install and Use Population-based optimisation algorithms

1. Installation: Move your script file into the MQL/Scripts directory and restart the platform.

2. Execution: Drag the script onto a chart; it will perform a one-time action, such as closing all open orders or clearing chart objects.

3. Editing: Use MetaEditor (F4) to modify code, click "Compile," and verify no errors appear in the terminal before running.

4. Removing: Scripts stop automatically, but you can remove them manually by right-clicking the chart and choosing "Remove Script."

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: How are scripts different from EAs? A: Scripts execute a single action and then stop; EAs monitor the market and trade continuously.

Q: Can I assign a hotkey to a script? A: Yes, right-click the script in the Navigator, select "Set Hotkey," and define your preferred keyboard shortcut.

Q: Why did my script stop? A: Scripts are designed to stop immediately after finishing their programmed command; this is normal behavior.
