Back-testing with Same dataset but different broker
Back-testing with Same dataset but different broker
lets say I am using the same dataset and period downloaded from tickstory, I then use it in mt4 in two different brokers.will it yield two different results when using the same expert advisor to open trades.
Re: Back-testing with Same dataset but different broker
Hi Victor,
It is possible that you get differing trades. Each broker has different trading conditions such as Leverage, Lot Size, Margin currency and so forth. Depending on how your EA is designed, this might affect the way it opens trades. If all the broker settings are exactly the same, then yes, you would expect to see the same results with the same data set.
Regards.
