Advanced Optimization (UPI)

Adaptive Trend Seeker EA includes a custom optimization feature based on the Ulcer Performance Index (UPI).

In the MetaTrader 5 Strategy Tester, users can select:

Optimization Criterion → Custom max

This allows the optimization process to search for parameter configurations that maximize the UPI value, prioritizing the balance between performance and drawdown depth rather than focusing solely on net profit.

The UPI is a metric that penalizes negative volatility and favors smoother equity curves.
