So the gatorinla's EA does not require a hedging account or the concur of the gbp is not about gatorinla's EA ?

Not just yet.. I think I can place larger logic, into a smaller tf. It wont be as accurate. But will offer more scalps. Very tight spread is a requirement. Theory and reality often dont match (the evolution of man). I want to place the gold Bentley logic in a Boxster tf.

If your EA is a volatility scalper is best to do the backtesting with MT5 (converting the EA from MT4 to MT5) with "Every ticks based on real ticks". Even so the MT5 backtesting can be unrealistic...

I have a volatility scalper EA and backtesting on MT5 with "Every ticks based on real ticks" shows it made tens of percent every days, but on live running it fails.

is your "modelling quality" good? I'm as skeptical as the next guy. So far, live. I dont have a bad things to say. My first trade was a negative 5$. followed by good trades.

You are correct...just downloaded the full Dukascopy ticks data for current month (EURUSD, ticks data on each day) and it fails...a new beginning for a better EA...

86% History Quality with full Dukascopy ticks data ??? I don't think so...

If you dont have good modeling. Those back test are worthless. Knock on wood so far. My live test have been as good, or better than the back test. you need 99.9% or better, 0 errors. Nothing beats a live test.. This high quality back test is as close as we can get. https://tickstory.com/thank-you-for-...id=1&plan_id=1

slippage is probably getting you. scalping is more vulnerable to small deviations. try optimizing to a specific time span. A scalping ea shouldn't trade all times.

Than if the live test is different. You should probably do something else. So far, my test agree with the live test. If that changes, I will do something else. Mine is less susceptible to those smaller moves.

Scalping wise, a different system. If I do use the scalper. I have already used it live in my manual trading. So I have already tested them. I'm just taking the same rules forward. In this way. I take out the human errors, some do to boredom, lack of sleep, or just being a dumbass. Systematically doing things without some emotion. A machine gun approach. Using a computers ability. To make hundreds + more trades than me. If I can win 70% of my trades with a 8 pip average. I can lose the remaining 30% with a 8 pip average. And still make $. If I than get the losing 8 pips to 3. I win the lottery. Slowly but surely. Like a casino.

This is the DAX scalper with the same results live and backtesting in current month...it is not sensitive to any History Quality (it have significant SL and TP levels, no any trailing stop)...

The MT4 backtesting for last 10 months is still unrealistic (it increase/decrease the lot size as soon as the balance increases/decreases, it starts with 0.1 lots at 1k initial balance) because the last 3 months is at no any growth:
