Thank you Herr Lotter.
Actually, I had this issue with far less than 1024 Strategies. Probably, other files were counted as well? Why I am having these numbers? I have around 50 Algos (increasing), several time frames, several Asset Groups, several Regimes methods and several Versions. This is combined in a speaking coding:
e.g. AL01-G1-R2-0240-V1
and so on. So, I get many combinations which I analyse. The last parameter version is used to optimize (reduzing overfitting, doing robustness tests,...) I am looping only thru assets (and not thru algos or TimeFrame).
I am having a development, testing, LiveDemo and Live layer. That means one Zorro for each layer. Strategy and History are on Google drive (in order to use several PCs in a Tailscale network with the same data). I have implemented more and more a machinery of research, development, testing, demo and live trading, but Zorro is the core and it works great.

You have to get the historical data from another source, like AlphaVantage or EOD, or from your broker. Stooq is currently not delivering data for direct download, not even with an API key. We have already looked for a free alternative, but found none. If anyone knows a free and daily updated source for D1 data, please let us know.

Some may already have noticed the new "Ranger-Z" item in the menu of the Zorro website. A Zorro version of the legandary Ranger system by Robert Pardo is now available.

If I remember correctly, you can use a Family Advisor account to trade with multiple accounts from one endpoint.

That sounds great. Some ideas - futures trading in its particularities - options strategies - data scraping (for constructing indicators, e.g. COT) - Input/output section in the manual thanks

I use optimize(56, 8, 112, 8) with additional smoothing period * 2. You are correct, it has a little effect on individual component and no significant effect on overall portfolio performance (-1% AR) which I consider a statistical fluctuation. But it has an effect nonetheless. What actually happens is that new backtest with new MMI changed OptimalF of one component. That changed reinvesting margin resulting in a visibly different portfolio statistics.

It looks like they're deliberately requiring browsers, which suggests using "bots" like Zorro is a violation of TOS.
On the other hand, I know that AlphaVantage in particular was explicitly intended for API downloading. Some of its API interfaces are free, and others require a premium subscription. I have had good success with it while I was using it, and I'll probably use it again if I need it.

The simulator is designed as a multiscale time series laboratory for studying how a nonstationary observed process can be decomposed, forecast, regularized, and reassembled through interacting stochastic representations across multiple temporal resolutions. Its purpose is to compare heterogeneous autoregressive, integrated, moving-average, seasonal, and exogenous-state formulations on the same evolving signal, while simultaneously tracking the local geometry of the series through derived state variables such as displacement-like level, velocity-like increment, acceleration-like curvature, higher-order change, energy-like amplitude concentration, damping-like persistence loss, and resonance-like frequency alignment. The system evaluates how these derived quantities co-evolve under changing dependence structure, changing variance, changing memory depth, and changing cross-scale agreement, and it uses those interactions to adapt the relative influence of competing forecasting contexts. In this sense, the simulator is not merely a forecast engine but a dynamic estimator of structure, where each contextual model contributes a partial view of the underlying temporal law and where contextual weights are updated according to residual whiteness, normality, heteroskedasticity sensitivity, error persistence, directional agreement, and state-consistency criteria. The framework also serves as a controlled environment for examining the stability of recursive model reuse, the consequences of delayed refitting, the emergence of seasonal persistence, the effect of transformed coordinates such as logarithmic and differenced states, and the propagation of uncertainty through an ensemble of conditional predictive distributions. At a higher level, the simulator can be understood as an adaptive operator on time-indexed data that maps raw observations into a hierarchy of latent state summaries, local diagnostics, cross-resolution coherence measures, and regime-sensitive forecast fields. Its central mathematical aim is to explore how one can construct a robust, self-correcting approximation to a complex evolving time series by coupling classical stochastic process models with state-dependent weighting, multiresolution consistency checks, and dynamically stabilized forecast aggregation.

Hi there
I have been running Z12 live with RoboForex through MT4 since May 4, 2026. After 80 closed trades, the results are:
Net result: -$1,736.59 Win rate: 30% Profit factor: 0.287 Maximum closed-trade drawdown: about -$1,744 I compared the live result with every overlapping 80-trade window in the backtest. About 0.72% of historical windows performed as badly or worse, so this appears possible but unusually poor.
The losses were concentrated in indices and metals: XAU/USD: -$811 US30: -$702 NAS100: -$183 GER30: -$169 FX total: approximately +$128
I also had 15 Skipped (Margin ... Min 2) messages, all on EUR/USD. They involved CT_75 shorts and HP_59 longs. These directions have very small OptimalF values: CT_75 short: 0.002 versus 0.309 long HP_59 long: 0.013 versus 0.557 short The live and backtest EUR/USD contract parameters match, so these skips appear to be normal minimum-size/ACCUMULATE behavior rather than insufficient account margin so I have trouble seeing how this could affect the performance too much.
I also got this Warning 054: US30 LotAmount 0.10 -> 0.010 Warning 054: US30 MarginCost 48 -> 5.0 Warning 054: US30 PIPCost 0.1000 -> 0.001000 Warning 054: US30 PIP 1.000 -> 0.1000 After normalizing Lots × PIPCost / PIP, average US30 exposure was approximately $0.216 per index point live versus $0.284 in the backtest. So the live exposure was about 24% lower which means I'm at least not taking on more risk than the system in backtest
Does this analysis suggest an ordinary but rare bad Z12 period? It seems like the phantom trading should step in a some point?
I mean I have been reading the news lately so I know we've had a rather spicy time in the markets. I just wanted to say this is money I can afford to lose but I'm just curious if anyone else has had a rough patch with this one?

The new release - named Lerna - is already halfway done; it just needs a little more time to be completed. Everything that has been finished so far has already been committed to the repository.

Finally, I found it.
I used the SaveMode flag variable and had set it to 4 for a dedicated reason. Now, I changed it back to SaveMode=791 and it should work. I set this a while ago and the more complex the set-up gets ...
For Information from the manual:
These are the SaveMode Flags: (x) are bit code
SV_SLIDERS(2) save/load slider positions (default). SV_ALGOVARS(4) - save/load all AlgoVars (default). SV_ALGOVARS2 - save/load all AlgoVars2. SV_TRADES(1) - save/load all open trades (default). SV_STATS(16)- save/load statistics data, to be continued in the next session. SV_BACKUP(256) - after loading, save a backup of the .trd file (default). SV_HTML(512) - after loading trades in [Test] mode, generate a HTML file with the list of open trades.

Hello Zorro forum, problem solved. Indeed, I just fixed naming of tickers in the assetlist. IC Markets have different naming for indexes as compared to Afterprime or other brokers. There is obviosly no relevance to USD/CAA or A2_87 strategy. The program was blocked or confused by resolving data from the broker due to missmatsch of ticker names (GER30 vs DE40, NAS100 vs. USTEC, etc.)
If my post is confusing or irrelevant, please admin just erase it or whatever.
Cheers !!
