Optimise TradingView Strategies An assistant for optimising (Optimize) & backtesting trading strategies in Tradingview

The Optimiser is a powerful Chrome extension designed to assist traders in optimizing and backtesting their TradingView strategies effectively.

Affiliations with trading platforms like ByBit and OKX underscore its commitment to transparency and continuous development.

User reviews

Users find 'The Optimiser - TradingView Strategies' to be a powerful and time-saving tool supported by an engaged developer and community. However, common issues include forced account restrictions (Bybit), disruption from TradingView updates requiring frequent fixes, privacy concerns due to broad permissions, and occasional performance and UI problems. Overall, users appreciate the utility and developer support but urge caution regarding security and access limitations.
Pros
  • The extension is considered an amazing and great tool that helps improve trading strategies.
  • There is a supportive and collaborative community around the extension and its developer.
  • The developer is responsive and frequently updates the extension to fix issues caused by TradingView changes.
  • It provides significant time savings in strategy optimization and backtesting.
  • Users appreciate the utility and dedication of the author to the trading community.
Cons
  • The extension requires a Bybit account to use, which is not accessible in some countries, limiting usability.
  • Frequent TradingView updates cause the extension to stop working or throw errors, requiring developer fixes.
  • Concerns about privacy and security due to the extension requesting broad permissions beyond TradingView, including exchanges, raising fears of possible data misuse.
  • Performance issues occur with heavy optimization cycles (over 10K iterations) causing crashes or hangs in Chrome.
  • The user interface (UI) is reported as poor or bloated, with unnecessary login and multiple pages opening, which can be intrusive.

There is not strategy parameters. Test stopped. Open correct page please. I open the parameters tab when i press the 'test strategy' , I can see that it runs the test , but then this error pops up, the optimisation stops, and the results it gives is basically the same as before. is there any fix for this?

Suggest anyone using this extension do so with extreme caution, it was previously found to be submitting your Tradingview strategy source code to the daviddtech URLs with some stealthy obfuscated javascript functions. And could still be doing so with new techniques. Extensions wanting full access to tradingview.com alongside other hosts is a big red flag. The functionality is also just a re-wrapped copy of what can be found in other webstore extensions without the shady permission requirements.

Actually bugging, maybe because of adaptions in TV? Please keep us updated. The problem lies within the strategy-settings window, which is closing as soon as I want to press start after choosing my presets. Reinstalled the optimiser and updated chrome already. 1 star for catching attention. Will relocate it soon after fixing. "Error message: It was not possible to find a strategy with parameters among the indicators. Add it to the chart and try again."
