Hi,

How often should an EA be re-optimized ?

Say I’m aiming H4 or H1 charts… How often should I re-optimize it ?

Is there a common sense or rule for that ?

Thanks.

Whenever it doesn’t work. Which will be often as I don’t believe in the success of any EA.

:rolleyes:Way to answer a question dude.

lrcaste, I would suggest that there is no hard and fast rule for this as it would depend on the strategy. The first course of action would be to maintain contact with the creator, as he is likely to be on top if this.

Alternatively, you could follow the progress and discussion of the specific EA on one or more of the many forums that discuss the particular robot.

Well, is no fixed time to do that.
If you notice it’s performance is degrading should consider optimizing, otherwise
let it as is, you know, “if something isn’t broken, don’t fix it”.
