Running Live

 

Please teach me How can I run EA live.

I have been testing with History Data testing my EA.

 

need LIVE broker account

broker that use MetaTrader platform

then address questions to broker - they will help u = want ur money :)

 

Thanks FBJ.


I mean while being in demo how to do, because the strategy tester ceases after running, it does not responds to real time incoming ticks.

I am not ready to put my money yet, if you say this is only possible with real account, then I will have to open with them. but no money yet...


 

" strategy tester ceases after running"

yes, is 'backwards' tests on historical data already held by Terminal

.

" it does not responds to real time incoming ticks."

no, it will not - is history only data runs on

.

"I am not ready to put my money yet"

good, save ur money ;)

wat u do is turn loose your Expert Adviser and let it run while logged in on demo account.

now, u are 'forwards' testing on real time LIVE data sent from broker to Terminal as data available... ;)

Sorry, I could not understand your advise on how to forward test, thanks.

 

Forward Test:

Open a Demo Account.

Attach EA to chart.

Verify it is running. Add "I am running" verification code to your EA if necessary.

Sit back and see what happens as time goes by.
