Hi,
again, as somebody else, I would like to stay away from forums. But, as for somebody else, such kind of posts are a too strong push!
What do you think about such backtest result (2 months on the 1 minute TF):
Then, please, go to this link:
My First "Grail"
and read it, repeating, till you are very familiar with it.
If you are already very familiar with all that stuff (i.e. you know how many ways you have to create illusions out of backtesting), I sincerely apologize, and your chart might start to have some real interest. Otherwise, it can be anything: curve fitting, exploiting unrealistic spreads, bad data, lack of statistical significance... anything. There are 1000 ways of generating impressive charts with a backtest. And this is what normally commercial EA sellers do.
Sorry to be a bit crude.
Bye
