AI Generate IsInstantiatedOnEachOptimizationIteration?

[ErikHR1969]

I was using the new AI Generate (Experimental) feature and noticed that the strategies being generated have:

IsInstantiatedOnEachOptimizationIteration = true;

And I found this in the source code class GeneratedStrategyLogic:

s.Indent(4);                        s.Append("IsInstantiatedOnEachOptimizationIteration = true;" + Environment.NewLine);

Is this the code being used to generate the AI strategies?
If Yes can I change this to false to improve performance?
I am running the AI Generate using 15 years of historical data on ~60 ETFs with Optimize => Aggregated checked.

Thanks,
Erik

Hello ErikHR1969,

Thank you for your post.

AI Generate strategies are not designed to mind the intricacies necessary to reset class level variables in State.DataLoaded. Changes would need to be made to support IsInstantiatedOnEachOptimizationIteration = false after the strategy is generated. Changing this within the GeneratedStrategyLogic class would not speed up AI Generate, nor can you actually make changes to the StrategyGenerator file through the NinjaScript Editor. Manual modification is also not recommended as this may break the AI Generate function entirely.

Please see our help guide that illustrates resetting class level variables when IsInstantiatedOnEachOptimizationIteration is set to false:
