I just got the new EURUSD data from the TickDataDownloader and put it on SQ for retesting strategies. I created a new name for this data, however all the results using this data produce mega losses!
What’s up with that? (The EURUSD data that comes with SQ seems fine.)

You have to be 1000% sure that your data are correct. Gmt offset on 4h is crucial. Paste here everything you have. Screenshots etc

I don’t know how to modify GMT offset or what it should be set at if I could find out how to set it.
(Some trade history of tests show only losses. Others show only maximum lots. Nothing individually peculiar.)
I have attached the screenshot of my Data Manager now.

You can do this in SQ tick data downloader, where you find this option .

OK, but the results also come from the data that comes with SQ, not from TDD separately, so that can’t be the problem across the board.
Another Question: When SQ produces excellent results why do the backtests on MT4 not even come close to them? DD on SQ might be under 1% and MT backtest will stop out at DD 70%! I can’t fathom what is going on.

In case of mt4. Do different results all your strategies?

Yes, so far all profitable SQ strategies produce “insignificant” MT4 BACKTEST results (due to going over 70% DD.)
