Hello Experts,

What will be the reasons if an EA was running different in Real account and Strategy test?

After running one week I noticed the filed positions in real account.

By comparing once in Strategy tester, the result was different (understood the deal may be slightly different).

I am concerning why position was executed in Strategy but not in real account?

Is the broker problem? or My PC problem? My PC is running 24 x 7.

Spread, execution of the broker, latencies, price gaps, ...

It seems when the condition was met it can file the position in Strategy test, but not in real account. Therefore it misses the chance to take profit / stop loss.

How to solve it? Any idea

Change your strategy, symbol, broker, ... so that theses disadvantages don't mess up the results.

Too wide range to troubleshoot, any suggestion of broker (may be trying in this approach first)
