Something is very strange here. When I test PDV_105 with TDS 23/2 trailing I get completely wrong result compared with real result on my account. Enter price is almost the same but exit price won 25 pips on tester but on real account was BE. I guess it's the same for other days as well with wrong results on tester. I can't compare the other days because I was intervened manually before but for this day I know it's wrong on tester. TDS 23/2 trailing setting: {image} Real account: {image}
Are you using Tick Data Suite for testing?

ULTRON_PDV_106 Updates: Corrected colour of figures on info panel. Added trend details to info panel (everything has to be green for a trade to open). Added a separate MA setting for the Retrace Exit figure (currently defaulted to 50 - the same as MA3). Added break-even settings and logic. The break even logic is checked before the trailing stop logic, and the trailing stop only starts when the price is in profit by BreakEventAt+TrailinsgtopStart pips. Setting BreakEvenAt to zero (the default) turns off the break even logic. {file} {file} {file}...
Just for the sake of clarity, none of the move-opening parameters have changed, they're just now displayed, correct? It still utilizes the same opening signals as Pawels original EA?

Correct, the display is for information only.

Paul, have you done any backtesting with Break Even setting?

I couldnt see much difference in using BE.

Point mentioned by @majamvice is indeed true. Closure is indeed different. Timing as well as number of pips being made.

@mrdfx - good to close in on manual after 30+ pips, if we can price action (PA) is not our favor we can close the trade. It is a good idea. more over this EA is only opening few trades. So we can always use our own judgement to close profitable trades. Win is a win

Yes, and because exits are very different I don't think we can trust at all backtesting results.

I wouldn't say that.

It happened once I did give full March results, please do compare open close.

Previous trades did coincide.

I was wondering, what caused such a close, it is timing. Because i have seen, on a fast spike, closure will be different based on speed of server as well as connection to the broker.

Opening times do match perfectly. So Backtest results we have to give credit.

Anyway it doesnt matter. This is still a good EA, signals are very nice and strong. We can make money on this. not sure about others, I did make money in march with trades using this one. 1 trades went SL though 3 are on BE rest on trailing stop.

It's sure this is good EA and profitable, but we need to watch it and decide what to do, but so is with all other EA's. I don't think speed of server could make 25 pips difference on tester compared to real account.
I wonder how it would be with MT5 version as their tester is much better compared to MT4.

On my ThinkForex Live account ECN(92ms connection) , all of my 7 trades have been winners since I started. I believe a fast connection and ECN account makes a difference in execution of trades.

I don't think 92ms is fast connection. What would you think about my 2ms connection if you think your 92ms is fast.

And we are not scalping here,so fast connection doesn't matter so much in this case.

It did make difference.

gave comparisons of 5 points between 0.9 ms and 3.92 ms connections to same broker yesterday as it happened.

It does make difference while entry, but on trailing stop- unless there is a huge spike it wont make much dent.

With whom do you get 2ms?
Is it Vps or the broker?
