# MT5 Robot Tester ## Overview Select the best MetaTrader 5 robots (Expert Advisors) from a *candidates* folder by driving the Strategy Tester from the command line through a **3-round pipeline**, moving each bot between folders as it advances, and **learning across runs** to improve selection each loop. The whole run is checkpointed and resumable. - **Round 1 — screening (all pairs):** backtest the EA on each symbol in the configured `common.symbols` list (one `Optimization=0` backtest per symbol — MT5 build 6061 leaves the `Optimization=3` XML empty, so per-symbol backtests are used). Gate: **≥5 symbols profitable AND best symbol ≥3× deposit**. - **Round 2 — best-pair backtest:** single backtest on the best symbol; analyze net profit %, worst drawdown %, % positive months, all-years-positive, LR Correlation, months-to-new-high. - **Round 3 — sequential parameter optimization:** optimize the 5–6 inputs after `MagicNumber`, one at a time, range ±50% step 5%; then a final backtest. - **Finalist:** optimized result **improves** on Round 2 **and** profit **≥4× deposit** **and** worst drawdown **≤12%**. Tested bots move to *in-testing*; finalists are also copied to *finalists* with their optimized `.set`. ## When to Use - "Prueba robots / bots / EAs en MetaTrader 5." - Screen a folder of MT5 Expert Advisors and pick the best across all pairs. - Optimize EA parameters and decide finalists by profit/drawdown/consistency. - Resume an interrupted testing run. ##
