You can also use your MT5 data in the Express Generator to create and validate your strategies.

• Export data from MT with the “Data Export.mq5”. (You can download the script from EA Studios, Data Import page.) Set the proper count of bars and commission values in the script's Input.

• Place the files in a subdirectory of ExGen's data directory. For example: C:\express-generator\data\MyData

• Use the directory's name as a server name when running the generator.

node .\bin\gen.js --server MyData --symbol EURUSD --period M15 --max-data-bars 100000

This is exactly what I've been doing, since I bought EG. In the past few days I've been using Darwinex data instead of my own because I thought it would be the same as the Darwinex demo account I'm testing on, so I thought I could skip that step. Turns out I might not be able to and get consistent results.
