Balachandran Chandrasekar:
I have an EA which runs ok when run in strategy tester with setting modelling = 'Every Ticks".
But the same EA does not perform better when run in strategy tester with setting modelling = 'Every Ticks based on real ticks".
I like to know 2 things.
1) What is the actual difference between those 2 modelling inputs.
2) If i have to achieve the same result as in "Every ticks" mode, what i have to do in my code or strategy ?
I think... It is mostly about slippage. In case you do not use fixed SL and TP in your code the result is pretty much similar.
