Strategy Tester results

New comment
 

Hello everyone,

Today I started using the strategy tester on my EA program. The results must be wrong, or at least totally misleading.

Yes.

Yes.

Hello again,

Could you please and explain why results can be so wrong. I noticed on some tests that I got GetLastError() message #138

one day isn't enough to make yourself a idea.

Sorry I meant to say GetLastError()

Woops, I just realised my OrderClose() is wrong. So it might be waiting for my TP to get triggered.

 

I started work on  OrderModify(), I haven't got very far with it. I am just playing around with it atm.

  {
   double bid,ask,TS,TP;
     {
//    Modify short     
      Trade=OrderSelect(OpenPosition,SELECT_BY_TICKET);
      bid=Bid+OrderOpenPrice(); //
      TS=TrailingStop*Point;    //
      TP=bid-TS;
//--- 
//    Modify long
      Trade=OrderSelect(ClosePosition,SELECT_BY_TICKET);           
      ask=Ask-OrderOpenPrice(); //
      TS=TrailingStop*Point;    //
      TP=ask+TS;
     }
   return(errorlevel);
  }
  
 bid=Bid+OrderOpenPrice(); //
Price plus price is meaningless. If you bought at $10 and now price is at $15, what is the  meaning of $25?
