1) backtesting ticket numbers 1202, 1203, 1204, 1222, 1223 and 1224 are off by one hour compared to the live test results 8764720, 8764728, 8764731, 9017377, 9017387 and 9017394.
2) backtesting ticket numbers 1236, 1237, 1238, 1239, 1240 show profits while they should be losses.
My EA trades on 1hour time frame using one hour open price with no fancy averaging or indicators. All back tested results are done with proper downloaded 1min data converted to 5M, 15M and 30M with a score of 90% for model quality.
Has anyone able to obtain exact results between live and backtestings during their EA development? I have been to 5 different forums and it seems that most users are extremely leary about MT4 backtesting results.
Here is my live test results
