Close in profit and MT5 complete optimization

[gooseman]

Hello

I would like to check for profit on bar close and if it is in profit, I would like to close the position.

This is what I have: shared/gYaZqETO

This works when it wants to. On some pairs it works great in backtesting than some other pairs, my laptop fans kick up and I can see the estimated complete optimization completion time start to build up. I left it on earlier today and saw that time above 1000 hours and counting to optimize 2 parameters with less than 1000 passes. This only happens when I introduce the close in profit to the code. I am positive and correct me if I am wrong, that it is how I built the logic in this EA.

Any way to make this simple idea easier to streamline when optimizing?

Thanks.

@gooseman Why don't you try OHLC on a first optimization try and then moving into ticks when optimizing. That would identify the most potential option without consuming so much 'fan requirements'.
