Hi,

I’m wondering what the best practice is in terms of running several EAs on an MT4 terminal, and monitoring their performance.

When developing a strategy, we set the account balance in the settings before we run the generator, so once a strategy is ready to be tested on MT4, should we set up a dedicated demo account for it with the same balance?

I imagine that if all EAs ready for MT4 demo testing are put into the same demo account, the results could be skewed a bit due to the equity in the account not being the same as what the strategy was modelled on?

Would it also be a good idea to set up separate live accounts for each EA? Not putting all your eggs in one basket etc?

But then I wonder if all those accounts could slow MT4 down, also causing skewed results..?

Does anyone have experience regarding this?
