what are the limitations of the strategy tester?
Byakatonda Denis:
Iam trying to test an EA using the strategy tester but it gives positive results(as i programmed it) for the first few ticks and then stops following the programmed instructions,
Apart from the sleep() function ,what other disadvantages can one face while using the strategy tester??
I am afraid one limitation is it can't read your mind, only your EA instructions ;-)
