I'm running with the CPU version.
Looks like it might have been some intermittent issue though, I've tried running a couple of times more after a reboot, and I'm not seeing the issue anymore.

hi,
I changed my computer to Lenovo, using Windows10. I tried to install Zorro_188. A window appeared, indicating files are being extracted. When extraction finished, the window disappeared. The Zorro software was not installed.

Please help.

Thanks.

In which folder did you try to install it?

Hi jcl.

A couple of things FYI:

Inconsistencies between this thread & (& on) the Download page: The latest link in this thread is 1.88.5 beta. The text on the Download page says 1.88.4 release candidate. The link on the Download page is to *1880.exe.

The What's New 1.83 bug list is still missing the trade close problem from the other thread.

HTH.

Hi jcl.

1.88.5 Download script, Assetlist option:

Specifying AssetsFix.csv updates Forex pairs, but CFDs all return "not subscribed". Worked fine in 1.83.2...

Specifying each CFD individually works (but have to reTrade Download for each).

Thanks.

Hi jcl.

And... One more question:

The CR, AR, & MI figures 1.88.5 is producing don't seem to make sense. For example, Z3 says one can invest $2000 CR, get an AR of 120%, and realize $500 MI - how does this work?

It was worse when I Tested - the CR dropped to $1677 and the MI went up slightly to $501. $1677 + 120% = $3689 = <8 months of $501...

Thanks.

On the trading status HTML page the Entry, Price, Stop and Trail values are printed in lower precision than in older Zorro versions.
For EUR/USD, USD/CAD and GBP/USD for example it was x.yyyy previously and now it is only x.yyy, so one digit less. While that might be OK it is definitely too low precision for USD/JPY:
In the old previous Zorro version 1.83 it was xxx.yy, now it is just xxx, so not showing any digit after the decimal point.

Some answers:

- Yes, there was a wrong info on the download page.

- "Not subscribed" normally means that the broker does not offer this asset, or not under this symbol name.

- The CR was too low. This will be fixed.

- The precision on the status page was also too much reduced, and will be fixed.

Thanks jcl.

Re. "not subscribed": These were GER30, NAS100, SPX500, UK100, & US30. Running Download against FXCM. Specifying "AssetsFix.csv" all the forex pairs are updated and none of these CFDs. Specifying any of these CFDs individually it updates fine. Seems to be some problem with the looping through the Assets in AssetsFix.csv?

Re. CR/MI: In the past there seemed to be a reasonable relationship, but perhaps it was coincidence. Now the relationship actually seems to be between DD, AR, and MI. In any case, the manual says CR is

Code:
...
This amount would be required when the strategy is entered at the worst possible moment of the simulation, for instance directly at a balance peak preceding a drawdown
...



The Test shows DD >$4000 yet CR ~$2000. How does the statement above reconcile this? If the strategy were entered with $2000 just before the $4000 DD it would blow up.

More generally, what figure(s) do I use from the Performance Report that mathematically (preferably easily laugh ) determine the CN (Capital Needed, since CR isn't it) needed to achieve the MI without the strategy blowing up? I can obviously back into CN using MI and AR, but where is CN on the Report?

Thanks.

An asset list for FXCM is included - look in the history folder. The CR did not consider drawdown, only max margin.
