Topic: Why my EAs aren't exiting the trades?

Currently, I am mostly working with M15 EAs, but some of them don't have a stop loss. The problem is that most of them aren't respecting the exit rule. When I perform the strategy test at MT5 my positions are usually held for 3-4 days and maximum  6-7. When I put them on a Demo account the scenario is completely different, the positions are held for 2-3 weeks and some EAs don't even close the position.
I'd like to know why am I getting so different results at my demo account and my strategy tester?
Why my EAs aren't respecting my exit rule?
I am actually running a stable and consistent connection to the broker.
Any help will be very appreciated.
Thank You for your time.

It must be some difference between the testing conditions and the demo account.
Try to isolate the problem to a particular indicator signal. Find an exit that doesn't match and see exactly what the tester do and what the Demo account do.
