I've been running into some issues with the accuracy of MT4 strategy tester lately, so I decided to start a thread where people who have the time and actually manually backtest systems objectively can post the results and any disparities between automated and manual backtesting. Then again, I may be the only man in the world who still uses paper and a pencil...
BTW, if you do engage in manual, paper based backtesting and/or charting, make absolutely sure that you write down what you really see, not what you want to...
