========================= NinjaTrader's 7 Built-in GO =========================
Pros:
* Optimization constraints can be defined independently of fitness function. For example something like: (2*Target) > Stop
And, as well, that the minimum number of trades for a valid optimization result could be given.
Cons:
* Not yet working for 7.0
Many folks like the MoGo optimizer better than PH Genetic. It certainly has more features. I personally use the PH Genetic but decided to port the MoGo to 7 as an exercise to deepen my knowledge of programming. Attached is the NT7 version. It is completely …
Footnotes:
(1) Collect additional user-defined data on a per-trade basis. For example, I would love to collect volume data, indicator values, % price movements, etc. on the entry bar of a trade and show that data in the trades tab grid in the strategy analyzer results. That way, I could analyze volume, etc. on winning vs losing trades, etc.

And, as well, that the minimum number of trades for a valid optimization result could be given.
