Question about the example EA in Kovalyov's Book

 

toHi everyone,

I am new to MQL4 and is trying learning the basics of it through Kovalyov's book. Now I have a problem regarding the example EA in the following path :

Practical Programming in MQL4->Simple Programs in MQL4->Combined Use of Programs.

The example EA, called shared.mq4, is based on the crossing condition of the ROCSEPARATE indicator constructed earlier in the book.

I downloaded the files (both the indicator and EA) and tried in the strategy tester using M15 and tick mode. Now the funny thing came: this low-frequency strategy gave me more than 6000 signals in 10 days time (2008.10.01-2008.10.11). I am just wondering if anyone has noticed this and could help me to figure out what is the problem ? Many thanks...

P.S. I have included both files

Files:
shared.mq4  14 kb
 

Here is the indicator file
