Are you trying to write a novel about backtesting...? hahaha. lol. just kidding.
As a matter of fact the main idea of backtesting is for us to observe how the EA works. It's certianly a mistake to use backtest to predicat the profitablity of an EA in the future. I have seen an EA that scores good marks in 15years backtest but yet it failed miserably in just one month of forwardtest. The market is always changing

Hahaa.. I m just trying to figure out how it goes. Trying to figure out if it points to the right direction (ie profit or loss) and if it can be rigged by the developer.
MQL5 reviews each EA before releasing it to the market. I wonder if they check things like that.
And 1 month was maybe to short time. In the 15 years for sure there were bad months as well. Maybe you should give it more time.
