Hi,
I'd be grateful for some help please. I've been back and forward testing one particular type of trade for the last 4 months over 8 years of data and it's now time to put all the results in to a spreadsheet and I'm wondering if there is a percentage or formula you more experienced traders use as a guide to slippage when calculating P&L.
This particular trade is on the H1 TF only and in my very short 1 year trading adventure I've only ever traded M15 until now and most of that has been on demo. The 50-60 live trades I've taken I haven't experienced much slippage at all, just the odd few pips here and there as I stay away from news and most of the last year has been learning rather than trading live.
Thanks for any help or advice you can give me.
Cheers
