This is very easy to explain. The highlighted number is the final balance in the virtual trading environment. Its profit is calculated with TickValue = 1. And MT5-Tester changes TickValue on every tick. For this purpose, in particular, it pulls data from other pairs. Moreover, Virtual does not calculate commission and swaps, as it is not really needed, just like TickValue.

I run everything on custom symbols myself. And there swap is zero. All settlement currencies are equal to the deposit currency. Then it turns out to be a complete match.

In general, the highlighted OnTester is the TS profit without using the best interval, calculated with TickValue = 1, Commission = Swap = 0. That's why it turns out that trading one lot always gives a whole OnTester.

I see, thanks. I will try to experiment with other TS, symbols.

Please share in comments the results of using (as above) the library BEFORE and AFTER in the form of pictures and relevant pieces of MT4/5 single pass logs.

Until I get it all together in my head, I am practising on the attached Expert Advisor.

Do I understand correctly what is marked on the picture?

Test 9

Absolutely correct!

Please, write the trade server and all the pass data that corresponds to the screens.

OnTester Critical Error appeared after completing the test in the previously attached EA, sort of with Number of deleted intervals = 0, maybe it was a division by 0
