Disliked{quote} I have an agreement with my broker about fixed spread, so I test only with fixed. Ofc in order to be able to participate also during rollover when the spread can go as high as 50 pips. MT4 backtester cannot be trusted. I also noticed about it that depending on the strategy and type of test, results can deviate dramatically Suggest you to move also to other software or create your strategy by manual testing and do only forward tests The past doesn’t really matter muchIgnored
If you are a programmer; it is not difficult to build a backtester that use real ticks. All you have to do is read the file ticks; and loop through them one by one till the end; and spit the results out. You can then improve it bit by bit as you go; till it becomes mature and matches your trading style.
Based on my experience with backtesting on tick data; there is no way GBPCAD will work on this strategy.
