Can I get anyone to give me some feedback on my EA. For some reason my back tests have become very unreliable. It doesn't increase or decrease money management but I know the developers are working this issue from what has been posted. I was getting many different back test results but now it is only recording 4 trades in 5 years. I know this is wrong. Thanks, Tom

Backtesting multiple timeframes is difficult and results are not as stable - some people say on the MT4 forum that is not possible. We have not seen a straight answer of MT about it. They always point to this link http://articles.mql4.com/446 Most of the limitations and issues are solved with MT5. Here my two cents: -You have to use the every tick option and the smallest period of your EA. -And read the attached pdf to improve the quality of your backtesting.

I'll read through this so thank you for sending it. The results over the last 2 weeks seem to really be diminishing every day with the same EAs. Thanks for the help, Tom |
