Hello how to develop the best robot - page 3

 
I think that to create good experts, I won't say the best, although that is always the goal, you need to have a lot of knowledge and experience with the programming language, its functionalities, and also code organization and cleanliness. You also need to have a lot of knowledge about the forex market, symbols and their particularities, price movements, correlations, and influencing factors. Putting all this together, I believe it is possible to create good experts.
 
just been working on some EA….got this back from back testing…really nice result…almost to good. will test real in lofe setting today. anyone see a usual big difference between test and real market? if so to what extend?

It depends on the way the EA is coded and one the way it is back tested. Both should match. So if the coded logic is only applied on prices not including the current (0) bar, it allows for testing in 1 OHLC or even open prices. If not, real results will be different from a back test.

But even then, the tester has nuances and peculiarities. What you have found most likely is a tester grail, exploiting the OHLC tick generation mechanism. Before going live, see if testing on every tick based on real ticks yield the same results.

Be careful with that. Many broker-dealers prohibit triangular forex arbitrage.

As a possible alternative, you could indirectly arbitrage forex futures against spot forex of the same currencies... or indirectly hedge a front month futures contract against a later month futures contract of the same futures symbol--they are not the same instrument.
