Best time period for backtesting

[orangutangas1]

Hello guys,

Just created an a EA and got a confusion on myself what period of backtesting should i chose for H1 and M15 time-frame trades(as parameters are different for 1M and 3M backtesting results) ? And how occasionally you are reviewing the results and adjusting yours EA?

Cheers,

That is a very broad topic and very much code depending. I suggest you to google for Metatrader Backtest Tutorial
