Hey guys,
Just a question re MT4 and not even sure if it is doable or will make any sense at all, but here goes.
I am a fan of MT4 and have designed and had built a few EAs for this platform. Now I appreciate that backtesting is not entirely accurate, but it does me a pretty good idea is something is working or not. I do use several different platforms for this and my results tend to be all over the place with various degrees of modelling quality, but never more than 90% (sometimes).
I have read that 99% can be obtained, and I've downloaded some info on how to do this from various places like Dukscopy etc, but never seem to have had any luck in getting anywhere near 99%. All my testing ends up with either crap data or gaps in the data. So obviously doing something wrong.
Now to my question. Would it be possible for a third party to be given access to a demo account of mine, where they could then take control of it, then add the required historical data, and then return control of the platform back to me. Where I could then run my tests and consistently obtain 99% modelling quality??
This would be easier (and cheaper) than me paying someone to run tests on my EAs and then supply me with the reports.
Thanks, and hopefully it is not too dumb a question. Just don't know enough about the tech side of things when it comes to data and MT4. Cheers. Jim
