MoGo - new genetic optimiser for NT 6.5

[jonmoron]

-Swig-,

THANK you for such a great contribution to the NT library. I have a few questions regarding your implementation:

1. Will we be seeing an NT7 version of this?
2. In your (or anyone else out there) opinion, how does MoGo stack up against NT7's built-in genetic optimizer?

I'm nearing the optimization phase for a strategy that has many parameters and am looking to use a GO to optimize it on. However, I'm new to the GO space and don't really understand much of how it works or what I should look for. This is why an honest expert opinion on MoGo vs NT7 would be appreciated!

Thanks again!

Use of Strategy parameter constraints grid

On the Mogo home page the following examples are described for the use of the strategy parameter constraints grid: "For example, if your strategy has ProfitTargetTicks and StopLossTicks parameters and you want your profit target to be at least twice your stop loss, you could add the constraint:

ProfitTargetTicks >= 2 * StopLossTicks"

How can this functionality be used to limit the number of trades that are considered by MOGO. I have added the following the following line to the onbarupdate section:

int nbrtrades = Performance.AllTrades.Count;

And then enter nbrtrades < 200 in the grid - but then get an error " there are one or more errors in the expression"

What are the rules around the use of parameters so that they can be used in the constraints grid. Any help will be appreciated.

MoGo for NT 7:

I've worked a bit on porting this to NT 7 but haven't resolved on error. The source and explanation for this is here: http://www.bigmiketrading.com/ninjat...rader-7-a.html

Mind taking a look at it Swig? :-)

Does MoGo provide any surplus compared to NinjaTrader built-in genetic optimizer?

Can MoGo be used in NT7?
