Hello,
My question about if we can really belive in a backtest, it's because how we can know if for example we are short on GBPUSD and we had added to our stop loss 4 pips for the spread, but lookin to fxcm and mbtrading charts in the last 3 weeks they had opened their spreads more thant 10 pips during slow hours (like US close, asian sesion or before Europe open), during our backtest how we may know that we were or were not stoped out?, the same if we are on a breakout system and we have a long pending order at specific price plus the spread, in this example plus 4 pips, but how may we know if the order were filled or not?
can we trust in a backtets?
How we can trade with brokers like fxcm or mbtrading that they open their spreads during these slow hours?
how can I adjust my stop loss to not be stoped out because they open the spread?
