Hello,
Have been running an EA on USDCHF/EURGBP/USDJPY/EURJPY/USDCAD/GBPJPY since 26/6/16 logging results on Excel daily.
Total gain for above currencies is £147.82 (26/6/16 - 16/7/17). Actual data - demo account.
Ran a backtest for each currency and total for period 26/6/16 - 16/7/17 shows a loss of £164.69. A difference of £312.51.
For each currency have downloaded latest data from History Centre.
Backtest was "Every Tick"..
Any suggestions re improving accuracy of backtest..?
Thanks...
