Brute-Force (Grid) Search – An exhaustive optimization method where all combinations of input parameter values are tested. In MT5 this is called the Slow complete algorithm, which “runs all possible combinations” of selected inputs. In cTrader, this is available as the Grid option, which “creates a grid of all possible parameter values and runs all backtests”. This method is accurate but can be very time-consuming for many parameters.
