Saving optimisation results

I don't understand why more people aren't requesting this, unless there is a way to save the data from a temp file that everyone except me is ware of.

Any Ideas welcome.

I really like this to be implemented in order to do proper research, currently backtests and optimizations cannot be shared or exported, the only option is to do screenshots, which is awful.

Seconded and thirded +1... I now see that I was not mistaken and that there is in fact no way to export/save/restore optimisation data. I find this so unusual that I am still not convinced that I am not missing something. I am not aware of any other modeling or simulation software that does not save the simulation results, ie. I am not comparing cTrader to MetaTrader. There is a basic expectation that if you spend one day on generating simulation results that you will be able to work with them after the fact, or that they will be saved somewhere in case there is a software problem or a crash - which is what happened to me just then.

Just write your own GetFitness function and dump the results in a csv or tsv or whatever file you want.

Totally support the idea

This would be a valuable idea to assist in perfecting a bot or strategy. I totally support the idea.

We need to export CSV files of optimization data

This data would be so useful. Please add this function to your platform.

A must feature

So with the exports we can apply extra filters in excel easily and compare multiple optimisations. Does anyone has any info if this is added in to do list of ctrader development roadmap?

All the best

It is under review
