warning, while GekkoGA seems a sweet ideas, in practice it's not...
I can't help you to configure it, but I can tell you why it's not such a great idea to use it for your settings.
What GekkoGA will give you after backtesting all the different parameter variations, is an overfitted configuration for your backtest range.
Which most certainly will fails with a live run.
So, for your strat settings, I would suggest you to understand what the strat is doing, and figure out reasonable values for the parameters.
I'm currently using RSI_BULL_BEAR_ADX, and to find the settings, I've ported it to a TradingView script, so I can visualise the effects of the parameters.
Just my two cents
