How did you get 29,256 M1 bars while testing 4 years, 9 months, and 17 days?
(20,256 bars ÷ 1440 M1 bars ≈ 20.3 days).
How did you get 29,256 M1 bars while testing 4 years, 9 months, and 17 days?
(20,256 bars ÷ 1440 M1 bars ≈ 20.3 days).
Great question, thank you. The backtest in the post was run on the H1 timeframe, not M1. 29,256 is the number of H1 bars in that period. That's my error in the description.
It doesn't change the results: the EA doesn't use bars at all. It runs on a one-second timer and only checks the server clock, so it enters and exits at the same time on any timeframe. It dosent matter if you apply it to the 1min chart to 1h. I'll correct the description. I'm also rerunning it on M1 and will post the report here so you can compare.
Thank you for your feedback,
Tomasz

Buy GBPJPY Every Monday. That's the Whole Strategy.:
A free, fully open EA: buy GBPJPY every Monday at 11:00 server time (04:00 New York), close at 23:00. Stays profitable in backtest with the entry anywhere from 09:00 to 13:00. Attach to GBPJPY M1.
