Not all trades show on the statement, maybe there's a limit because of all the modified trades.
this is a micro acct.

using trailstop for tp see set file.

I realize the modeling qualuity isn't the best. Best I can get from my broker Trading point. Maybe someone out there can test on another broker. Unfortuantely sinze I'm one of the internationally discriminated citizenry (American) so only so many places I can trade gold through MT.

Feel free to use/abuse/improve . . . ive done no real trading yet but will be forward testing this week

1 hr chart backtest

hey mate,

Just because you're from US, doesn't mean you have to say that when signing up for a demo.

Try it with dukascopy and you can download their 99% quality tick data.

if you go to eareview.com he has a section on how to convert the data into mt4.

that data you're using is of such bad quality I'd strongly recommend you do not trade this strategy yet, until you've tried the 99% data.

I once had an ea that made 80% in two months and this was with 90% quality data. With 99% data it lost 20% over the same time period.

how are the results?

Americans can trade XAUUSD on Oanda. You just can't trade it using any leverage. It's gotta be 1:1.

So if the price of XAUUSD is 1722 then 1 unit will cost 1722 and it will take 1722 of margin out of your account.
