I have tested 4 different EAs with 99.9% modeling quality, but they do not have any open trade in the backtest.
While the built-in MACD has no problem, why is that?
Test result:
No error:
99.9% modeling quality with no trade result?
Re: 99.9% modeling quality with no trade result?
Hi Sunny,
There could be many reasons for the EA not trading and only looking at the logs and/or code might give you more hints about why trades aren't occurring. If either is unavailable, you might try tweaking your EA parameters in such a way that it would be inclined to trade (increasing the spread threshold, for example) and then work backwards to see which parameter is causing your issue. Also check your back-test period and time-frame as some EAs do not trade with sufficient data and/or in certain time-frames. In some cases, the EA might give more information if you test it in 'Visual mode' as some display vital information on the chart itself.
If all the above fails, it would be best to contact the EA author to see if they can assist further.
Hope this helps.
