MT5 EA Backtest on real tick data not triggering stops - only stopping at 1 pip

New comment

Hi guys, I'm with a problem here, I tried to search for a solution but didnt see any other cases like mine.

Attached is the trade result graph and a piece of the history result in pips ( I checked the box "profit in pips for faster calculations" ) and in money.

The results, as you can see, is that it opens the trade but closes with 1 pip stop loss. (0.4 is how much it worth 1 pip with 2 lots)

I've tried with the MACD Sample (just changing the lot value - instead of my EA) and the result is the same.

I've tried with another broker and I'm getting the same problem. Maybe is a configuration on MT5 that i'm missing?

Anyone else seen this? 


Oh, and testing with "Each Tick" and "1min OHLC" mode return normal stops, I have no problem.


EDIT: I'm using a compiled future paper (WIN$). I tried using the current one (WINJ20) and it worked. The problem is with the compiled one. Still dont know what cause it.

Hey Thiago, any luck on sorting this out?

Same problem here, although it doesn't work even with the plain paper WINZ20 :(
