When the '''Strategy Properties''' dialog is closed, the '''Automate Order Execution Switch''' button turns into '''DTAA''' or '''DTSA''' depending on the auto trading mode that is used [https://www.multicharts.com/trading-software/index.php/Understanding_Automated_Trade_Execution (sync or async)].

Optimization will start at the time specified and recur with the selected frequency. :::<div style="background-color: #ccf0ea;">'''Note''': ''When Recur every N session'' is selected, re-optimization will start at the end of the trading session. To stop optimization on next session start and apply the best inputs check ''Stop optimize on session start''. If the option is unchecked, the optimization will continue after the start of the next session.</div>
# Check or uncheck the following boxes if required:
#: '''Apply inputs only if optimization results are better by''' N '''%''' — the percent value is customizable.

One can turn on/off Self-Adaptive Trading the same way as regular Auto Trading (via '''Format''' menu or by clicking on the '''Automate Order Execution Switch''' button).
When it is time to optimize the strategy, the specific command is initiated and the corresponding note appears in the [[Order and Position Tracker]] on the '''Logs''' tab.

If optimization is set to manual mode in the Self-Adaptive Trading settings one can start optimization during auto trading by clicking on the corresponding icon [[File:optimize icon.pngPNG|20px80px]] in the [[Status Line]] of the chart.[[File:Self-Adaptive Trading .png|none|Self-Adaptive Trading]]
