I have the same problem... But it happens only in the tester. On real time in a demo account the balance seems correct.

I'm running an EA and MT4 Tester is calculating profit wrong.
My account is in MXN pesos. I have a SL of 3,000 ticks and a TP of 10,000 ticks (USD/MXN), tick value is $1 MXN peso. In tester i'm using a spread of 2 (not real, just to vaidate profit results). See examples here and file attached.
Line 1 and 2 shows a SL triggered with a difference of 3,000 points. For 1 Lot, the result should be -3000 -spread.
Line 3 and 4 shows a TP triggered with a difference of 10,000 points. For 1 lot, the result shoud be 10,000 -spread.
Is it a bug or i'm doing something wrong? I don't want this to occur in real operations.
Please your help
