Topic: FSB does not trade XAU/USD or XAU/EUR

I believe there is a bug.

I exported the data from Iron FX broker.

It works for all currencies.

But for Gold no trades are placed with the generator.

Using manual strategies is the same, no trading happens.

Can someone please confirm if this is a bug or if I am doing anything wrong?

Thanks and regards.

It depends how you created and import data for XAUUSD into FSB?

Re: FSB does not trade XAU/USD or XAU/EUR

I opened my broker MT4 software.

Went to Tools, then History Center, then exported the data.

Data appears in FSB but no trading happens.

I did the same for other currencies and they work.

AAPL stock also works.

It's just the gold that does not work.

First of all, if you downloaded the data through history center then it's not broker's data but metaquote's data. Bottom line is that mq's data is rubbish, full stop.

Trading or no trading depends on many factors, what indis do you use?

I suggest you upload your data, so the error you are stating can be reproduced and then a solution can be achieved.

From my own experience.... if the data is not from Jforex or perhaps Oanda there is going to be vast gaps, it took me a long time to learn to look for good data. (cost me a few dollars as well)

My 'secret' goal is to push EA Studio until I can net 3000 pips per day....
