The mispricings that are abused are not really happening that often, tjat is the reason why its not really working

Its because these mispricings happen very very rarely if they happen at all

 
I swear most people don't read.

Peter already explained, but you are all too greedy to even read or watch the video .

Peter should sell this for 999$ , I guarantee you will get buyers .

This is what I've said in the description and I have put a text on the screenshot aswell, saying that it does not represent reality. The mispricing that is abused with the EA do not happen in reality or only happens very very rarely.

So what is the point of the EA then? If it doesn't represent reality and it happens so rarely, why would you consider adding it to your arsenal of trading tools, or it was just an exercise to provide an unrealistic example of something that would never happen, just for the sake of programming?

No offense, though just curious as to the "why" of it if it doesn't really do anything...

Arbitage and correlation are certainly valid strategies though if it's never going to happen in the real world as the brokers already have it cornered as a dead end, why teach people about dead ends?

The reason why I would add something like this to codebase is first of all to give some ideas to people, many people don't know what arbitrage trading is. Looking at this they may learn something. Second, here is a proper example of the strategy tester not being accurate. I've said in the description that it does not work, but there are arbitrage strategies out there that actually work. The problem is everyone is expecting that they can find a holy grail strategy on codebase for free. If you ask me why did I post something that does not make you money consistently than I have to ask the question back: why would I post something like that for free? 😃
