Request: Choose optimizer fitness for AI Generate

[ShatteredX]

Hi, sorry if this has been requested already.

First off, thanks for adding AI Generate to NT8. It seems like a great new feature that will be even greater once it's developed more.

Moving to my request: I'd like to be able to choose the optimization fitness function with AI Generate in Strategy Analyzer.

Currently, it can only optimize based on Max Strength.

Based on my testing, Max Strength almost always will generate strategies with a max performance of 99 that are only 1 trade. Obviously, a trading strategy that is only 1 trade over the course of many years is overly curve-fitted. This makes AI Generate pretty useless for me right now. I've experimented mainly with US Index futures data, daily and minute based.

Anyway, I'd like to be able to choose any of the optimization fitness functions, like max net profit, max sortino, etc.

Thanks.

Hi.
Any update on that?
I want to add my custom Optimizer as i did for standard strategy optimization to add No. Of Trades to the optimizer.
Is there a guide to do so for the AI Generate?
Thanks

Hello IsaacBillion,

SFT-4152 has not been implemented and has not been listed in the release notes.

Unfortunately, as this is not possible, there would be a guide for doing this.
