Hey guys I have a question about my robot

Hello guys,

I want to ask a question, I have a robot trading NZDUSD on M15, firts I runed the robot on demo for a few weeks then after I put it to trade on my live account, both accounts (real and demo) are ECN. Both accounts are running 24/5 on my VPS. I am with LiteForex.

Recentely something happened, the two robots were nicely synchronized opening position at the same time and on the same direction; but on the other day the robot on my live account took a Buy while the demo version didn't open any position. Then a few hours later the one on the demo opened a Sell. I had the same robot trading two accounts on the same VPS but trading in different direction. What caused the robot to open position on different direction? Is it something to do about broker's manipulation? Can someone try to help me understand please?

I must say something similar happened with another robot before. The one on demo account opened a position while the one on real account didn't open position at all. But this time it was a robot trading GBPUSD on M15. When I contacted Liteforex support about that issue, they told me to contact the robot seller about the issue. But there is no seller, since the robots is mine, I have created it with EAbuilder.

Thank you guys

It's hard for me to answer this question without understanding how your robot works in executing orders e.g using close of price or open of price etc.
That being said it is most likely a difference in price feed for live vs demo. This happens and especially if your robot is very sensitive to small changes in price. There are ways around this, though. You can speak with a coder to try and figure out the exact cause to try and stop it from happening somehow.

Another thing to note is that if you truly do have a profitable EA those small differences in live and demo will not make a difference. So you should not worry about it too much. Again, I don't know how your EA works so maybe it does make a difference to you.

If not I would recommend waiting until the EA has completed at least 100 orders to properly decide whether it even makes any difference or not.

hello,

Thansk for the reply, I have uploaded a screenshot of the Robot's entry rules. It took 42 pips and loss 44. Yes till now it's a profitable robot but till now 20 positions on demo account.
