Backtesting on live account

Postby domos.gabor » Thu May 10, 2012 11:18 am

Hello,

Please let me know whether it is possible to backtest your robot on live account. I would like to do this because unfortunately my broker does not calculate with commission on demo account and I would like to get a clear view how the EA handles commission + lower spread.

Thanks,
Best Regards,
Gábor

Dear Gábor,

We tested the old version of the robot on our MBTrading real account some time ago and as far as I remember the commission did not appeared either, even if the backtest was performed on real account.

Anyway, the robot will not work on real account (even if it's only a backtest) without the Activation Key. Only if you become our paying member you will be able to do the tests.

Our latest backtests were done using tick data from Dukascopy history database, Real Spread and Broker Commission = 8 pips / Lot. You will find them in the free demo version archive.

You can do the same tests with the help of few scripts that you will find here:

Kind regards,
Adrian.
