MT4 Strategy Tester Question

Hello Everyone,

I got a question about the strategy tester. I made an EA that does all its calculations on the 1H chart. When I run it on the strategy tester using "Every Tick" and setting it to use 1H as the period it loses. Ok no problem but the strange thing is that when I change the period in the tester, not the EA, to M1 and use "Every Tick" again it wins.... a lot.

I havnt figured out why this is and im not sure which to trust now. Any insight on why this is happening?

Thanks.

Hello. Anyone got an idea? Anything that might direct me in the correct direction to investigate?

Sounds like the corona virus to me. Try giving it to the black lives matter protesters and see if the virus goes away. If not you will have to do a temperature test from the nuts upward. Take note of the temp levels between the belly button and the tit line that should be around the same levels- if higher it could be a gas build up that will blow out sooner or later but if the levels are lower then you may have to do a self internal to see if you can obtain warmer finger tips.
The overall situation seems that you may be able to avoid medical assistance in the long term. And you may be able to brush up you pet dog if things get better of kick the cat in the guts if things get worst.
I don't think you will find much other assistance and my respected approach, on this subject, is to explore the concepts of not trading with an EA at all.
Keep me posted as I'm not really interested in this matter and I'm sure others aren't either.

The only one who can find what is the problem is you. )

First you should look at the trades taken on 1m and on 1h. Does it respect the conditions for the trade? If yes then you have coded to use whatever tf is ea on.

If it is something else then you messed up a lot more in your code that you have to dig what it is. ))

BUT why bother with this shit? If it works on 1m forward test for a couple of weeks and see if it works the same on a demo.
The reality we live in is probably a bug in the fabric of the universe. Why waste this opportunity with stupid questions?? Just use it to your advantage.
