I have another question. At the moment I generate strategies for the M5 timeframe. But I do not know how long the durability of the strategies is. It would be nice if anybody can answer my question.

I wonder if you are setting things properly for your data.

On the other side, the brokers data looks OK. You should not have problems with the Generator. Try to reduce the Acceptance Criteria set a proper entry amount (not too small and not too large) and run it.

Below are some photos for better understanding.

First: Broker data picture => all informations in different cells.

Second: FSB Demo data picture => all in one cell.

Hope that anybody can help me because I tried very thing you told but nothing works.

So I update often.... and grind out the strategies....

When I finally find a strategy that I think will make the grade, I get fresh data from the broker and do the refinements.

I do not believe that the difference between FSBPro data and the data from my broker to be all that significant.

It takes me a long time to find a strategy that will work long term.... I actually can not be bothered with updating from the broker continually when it is so easy to use what the program supplies.

I could well be wrong in my approach... however, it seems to be working well.

Most important for you is.. do what you feel to be right...

You use the data from FSBPro to generate strategies and if the generator found a good strategy you use the data from your broker?! I do not understand the sense.

Can you explane it more detailed, please?!

I am not sure where you are with your strategy development...... I want to point out that until you are close to having the thing trade..... it is not necessary to have your broker's data.

Once you get to where you have refined your strategy. then start on broker data.

I use the data provided by FSBPro because it is clean and easy to update. Once I have a strategy. then I start to get the broker data updated.

Unless you post the strategy, it is going to be very difficult for someone to assist you.

You may have wrong settings for your data, who knows where your difficulties lay.

When you download data into Metatrader on the history screens... that data is from Metaquotes.

I set the maximum data at MT4.

Where can I find the historical data from Metaquotes? Or can I use TickStory?

I tried something else...
I have used a strategy from EURUSD and changed it to EURGBP but the strategy was not shown. It looks like there is not strategy. I have no solution for this problem.
I hope that somebody of you has an idea?!

A balance chart which works good? Well, here you are:

Hi Footon

How many bars do you use to receive that?

That gives me a lot of data.

It is a simple and worthwhile approach.

Regarding MT4, be sure that you have set it up to receive maximum data

Go to 'tools', then 'options', then 'charts' and fill those spaces for max bars with 99999999999999. You may have the limits set too low.

It is very hard for anyone to know how your MT4 is configured...... you will have to check.

once you have these opened up you can download data from metaquotes by going in to the History Tab.

Sorry for my late answer, but I was very bussy. Thank you both for your answers, but both advices are not working.
What can I do more?

Best wishes and a nice weekend

Use 60 minutes or higher.

U will get results as long as you do not have requirements set too high.
