My Name is Ryan Brown. I'm a full time forex trader that specializes in Forex algorithmic trading. I have over 18 years trading experience and have been trading full time for over 3 years now. I trade over $200k live funds.

Here, I talk about Backtesting VS Live Trading. Does forex backtesting really work? This is the question many ask. In this video I go over what is forex backtesting and how do you backtest forex. I do all my backtesting in Metatrader 5 and Metatrader 4. Here, I compare my backtest results to my forex EA trading bot.

I use Ryan's CBK, vigorous and ranger. Ryan's eas have been superb. I have had some issues and Ryan has fixed them for me even when I got angry with him through frustration. He's a great guy and doing a great job. Thanks Ryan.

3 parts here; backtest with real ticks and spreads on MT5, live trade on demo and live trade on real account, with the same time period and everything else. What is expected is a bit more slippage on the real account. Otherwise the results should almost identical if you compare trades individually. MT4 backtests are not reliable IMO.

I hate this testings because... every test that showed the EA survived last 5 years without any issue failed in a few months after we used it. On the other side i have EA now that all backtests shows there is no single setup which will not blow the acccount and still over the same period of last 20 months my accounts are alive without damaging DD, not even close to blown accounts. And account is re-balanced to original value every month. So this is confusing about testing for me.

Hello Ryan !

At 1:46, you spoke about a developer you hired for coding.
Please, do you like giving me the contact details of that person ?
I appreciate your work along so many years, so I am sure that you partnered with a skilful person for coding.
I wish to get my own strategy coded under MQL4, so I am looking to get a valuable reference about that person for my own project. I kindly ask you to answer my request.

Thank you.

Note - I ignore recommendations I might get from various people reading my post. Please do not lose your time by doing that.
