Hello Edu,

that is quite interesting! Have you tried uploading different data into EA Studio, with a different broker?

At first glance, I do not see anything else but the spread (which you said you have tested with variable values)

Tomorrow morning when my head is fresh I will have a look at the pictures again, but give it a try with other broker’s data. Just to see if the problem is with the data that you export from the broker or is it something on the settings in EA Studio.

Yes, i tried another broker on EURUSD and it seems that everything is ok.. Even with higher spread.

 

With my broker instead, if a strategy is loosing on EA Studio, is profitable on MT4 Tester  and viceversa (on EURUSD not on USDJPY)

 

Tank you for your help

Hello Edu,

if you have tried with the other broker and it is fine, it means it is something the data once it is imported to EA Studio.

Now, I think you have no worries if the MT backtester shows profits. It means the EAs are just fine. There is just something with this particular broker’s data when it comes to EA Studio but I can not say what…

let me know if there is something else.

Kind regards,

[edu2]

Thank you Petko. So if the Mt4 tester it is that a strategy is profitable, i can trust right? It is a relaiable source

Hello Edu,

the Meta Trader tester should be the same as the EA Studio tester. As Petko says there is something with the data when it arrives at EA Studio. The bad thing is that you can not do the robustness tests.

[edu2]

yes that is the main problem, including also the optimization.

I don’t use EAs with less than W/L of 70%

Hey Edu,

Thapelo is correct. Personally, I would not trust only the backtester at MetaTrader. The robustness tools as Monte Carlo and the Walk Forward validation are essentially important. However, you can drop an e-mail to Forex Software and Mr. Popov to have his opinion on the issue with your data. He might give you some insight from the developer’s point of view.

thank you i wrote to him because

I have checked all the big cross. The results of EA Studio and of Mt4 T. are the same for every cross with JPY. EURJPY, USDJPY and AUDJPY.

They are different instead for every timeframe for all the others cross.

[Petko Aleksandrov]

Great, he might give you an idea. It is something with your data after you upload it on EA Studio.

Now, if you have another broker with similar data (you can check that with the Meta Trader backtester. You can use this other data to create and analyze the EAs with EA Studio.
