[amibroker] Re: CMAE behavior when optimizing control parameters?

Talking from personal experience - and I've been using intelligent 
Optimizers for quite a number of years optimizing combinations of 
continuous and "discrete" control parameters. Fred's IO has worked 
extremely well - in that I'm able to find optiminiums successfully, 
it may be a little more tricky, but not impossible. There are things 
that would help to IO work better. Nevertheless, I do have more 
problems with cmae with a lot of discrete parameters. But I suspect 
that's more to do with configuration of cmae rather than the ability 
of cmae itself.
