Questions about mql signals

 

How can the initial deposit be of a negative value? like here https://www.mql5.com/en/signals/1994#!tab=history&page=2

In the history of the signals , why you cannot see the profits or the losses in pips? And what is the Type Balance thing that shows up in history? Also what are those ultra high Growth figures? For example 7113289.79%  and the user has gained like only 49$ ?  

 
We are dealing with the problem.
 
So these unrealist gain numbers are part of a technical glitches? I see them on most traders.

The negative initial deposit is a result of incomplete history.  My broker Oanda-MT4 only keeps 3 months worth of history.  Also, the Deposits and Withdrawals are actually interest on the trades and balance.

Like you, I'm wondering about the fantastic Growth% and it's chart.  The shape of the Balance chart is OK but not the data point.

I confirm that the stats, up to Expected Payoff, are OK.  Below that, the stats does not agree with my own.  For instances, I have a negative value for Maximal Consecutive Wins.  My rolling last 3 month growth% is only 26%.  I have no idea how the Annual, Monthly and Weelkly % are calculated.

About your 3 Month History thingie. It reminds me about something.
Did you tried to right click in your history tab and selected complete history? That should probably fix it.
 

Ow i see fxyekim , thx for the reply. Would be interesting to hear from someone how this Annual % growth is calculated.

I have it set at All History. I think Oanda changed this recently. I used to be able to download all my history. Now I only get 3 months.

I will advise you to search for your suitable signal provider first and open account with his/her broker in order to earn the same result with your signal provider. If your broker is different from your signal provider the results of open position may be different due to their different bid price
