it would be very useful in timeMachine to be able to perform backtests giving a range to the possible variables in the trigger.
I give an example of how it happens on MT4 (financial trading)
the market is chosen, the strategy is selected and a range is given to the variables (which are constant).
the system processes all the combinations providing a performance report (gain, loss, maximum exposure) with all the combinations

Hello!
Unfortunately, this cannot be realistically performed on a standard desktop computer: you would need a powerful server to do this with sports markets.

it is not said, I have servers, but now with the minimum technology that have dektop (minimum i3) you can work safely. obviously with a server you will spend less time, but if you use one market (game) at a time, you can run it on anything

I mean, that the amount of work required for the program to do in order to backtest all possible combinations of variables in your triggers will likely freeze your computer.

if you use it only to do backtest no, then it also depends on what you enter in testing. all the computers are multi-core now and so the OS (since your app is x32) knows how to balance the CPUs. it's something I've been doing for years with metatreder 4 (for forex) and it's very useful, better to lose 1 week of backtesting than 1 year in real
