{quote} Can you please show your higher timeframe chart as well?
The next version will include a built-in indicator to show Higher Timeframe Conditions on the (Current) Chart.
Please note however that there are Multitimeframe Moving Average Cross Dashboard Indicators in these Forums that you can use for the same purpose.
You can find some useful resources here https://www.forexfactory.com/showthread.php?t=614720
See MTF MA Dashboard Indicator attached which is freely available here
Trade Well.

If you trade Ger30, this EA might work pretty well for you. Trade well.

{quote} Good to hear Go5. Could you share your results with us? Cheers.
The thing is, during "off-hours", the spread goes from 100 to 400 points so for a live situation an extra filter would come in handy.

I made a short video to show how to use the strategy tester. I hope that is ok with you Krismitt.
There is more that can be done but this shows the basics of how to run a test and record the results.
The reason I did this is because I know that when I first wanted to test an EA in the strategy tester I had no idea what I was doing - It was actually Krismitt who told me what to do. I hope this benefits some people and helps this thread to receive more test results.
I paused the recording so the video is quick to watch. If you know what you are doing already you won't gain anything by watching. If you un-tick the visual mode option you will get quicker results.
The red boxes that I drew when looking at the test results show some of the most important information;
1st box is the settings you used to run the test. This is important if others want to use your settings or maybe modify them slightly.
2nd box is profit factor. You want this to be as high as possible.
3rd box is drawdown. You want this to be as low as possible.
Others will know more than me but I hope this can get some of you started with your tests. Good luck
