<![CDATA[Forex Software — Huge profit in simulation and only losses in trading.]]> https://forexsb.com/forum/topic/3301/huge-profit-in-simulation-and-only-losses-in-trading/ Thu, 10 May 2012 17:10:09 +0000 PunBB <![CDATA[Re: Huge profit in simulation and only losses in trading.]]> https://forexsb.com/forum/post/14389/#p14389 Well, previous bar value (PBV in short) is there for a reason, it might look like "magic profit button", but that is NOT the case. It is there to ensure reliable backtest - in your HA strat you turned it off because it makes profit, but of course it makes money when it knows the future! Does it know what is going to happen next in live trading - you know the answer already to this question.

The bottom line is keep PBV usage on if you want real testing results.

About your first strat - where the hell did you dig up Bar Range Bands indi?

But the one called "OK Bar_Range_EUR_USD_M15_Time_Filter v1.xml" shows good results with "auto" on, yet it still loses in real conditions

why does it need that setting off - otherwise the equity curve doesn't go straight up or any other reason?

They mostly lose. What the heck?

I've attached some examples.
