Topic: Different Data Sources but Identical FSB BT Results?

Hello all, I seem to be continually struggling with finding a decent strategy on FSB but then having much different results when back testing the system for the same time period on my MT4 terminal using the same data.

As way to test if FSB is really using the data it says it is using I pulled up one of my strategies and set the data source one at a time to the three different data sources that I have on my FSB, which are:  1) FSB Demo Data, 2) FXDD Data, 3) Darwinex Data.

No matter which data source I have FSB set to I am getting the exact identical back test results to the penny in FSB, which is impossible.  Please see the images below.  This leads me to believe that FSB is not using the data it says it is using.  To make sure it is refreshing the data I also go into the slots and change one of the settings then change it back.  Still giving identical results for all 3 data sources sad

Any help would be great.

There is only one explanation to that - data files are same.

Please make sure that each Data Source has a separate data folder. You can also compare the data files by using a text editor.

Ok thanks I think I have it sorted out now.  I had to go to the Accounts Page and refresh each data source from there for some reason.  After I did that it is allowing me to refresh from the main page.

Thanks again
Serge
