Hi Folks,
maybe anyone has the solution for my little backtesting-problem.
Today i tested my new EA in Strategy Tester with Alpari 1M Data. If you check "recalculate" and hit the button "symbol properties" you will see the slippage that was used for backtesting. The problem is that the shown slippage was different from my broker that i would use for real. I was logged on with a demo account of my broker an the spread that was show at "market watch" window was the right one. Is there a chance to edit the spread that i use for backtesting so that it matches the broker's one?
Please excuse the "bad" english.
Regards from germany,
Dave
