Hi, I've got metatrader on a computer with windows Me and I'm trying to do a backtest and the EA only makes one or two trades over any period. Over the same periods, the same EA on XP does around 20 trades. The history is 90% on both computers. Why will the metatrader on windows Me only do 2 trades max??

its best to treat ME like they boy in the velveteen rabbit.
burn anything it has touched
btw, mt4 trades differently almost every time you run it, if you spend a few 100 hours you can learn to get it to test with 99% quality, but it will still not match live by about 50%.
not trying to be a troll, but back testing is to check the validity, forward testing is to see it its tradeable.

In trading, there is no bullshit. You either make money or you don't.
