<![CDATA[is the mql5 cloud network worth paying for optimization or use my own cores]]>running big optimization passes on my EA and my desktop takes hours per run. the mql5 cloud network offers to throw hundreds of agents at it for a fee. is it actually worth it, or do i just leave my machine grinding overnight and save the money?
