I'll show here how we can set the most important brokers parameters in Forex Strategy Builder.
For reliable backtes, our FSB settings must correspond to the broker we'll trade later. The easiest way to see the broker setting is to use FST. When FST is connected, it reads and uses the actual MT settings. We can see this info and to use it in FSB:
Settings Broker's Market Info
Connect
FST to the desired MT4 chart.
Open the first - “Status” tab of
FST.
Click on the “Market Info” button and market info will appear below.
Start
FSB, go to Market → Edit Instruments menu.
Set corresponding params from
FST to
FSB
Setting Account Info
Since
FST is already connected, click “Account Info” button to see your account settings.
In
FSB go to Account → Account Settings menu
Set corresponding params
