It sounds like 30 minutes just might be too long to wait on entry. We aren't even sure it is the same signal, it could be a completely different signal. Ideas?
One idea is to cut the time limit down to 1 minute (time value of 60) and 5 minutes (300) instead of 15 (900). Another option is to try large values (50, 100, 200, 400) for tick based calculations. I think that would require Build 200 with the best tick estimation :/ Do you mind testing some more or all of these settings? I appreciate your reports a lot, and I think this signal_count is our best candidate for making Phoenix more reliable on processing data.
I'm playing hokey and doing Phoenix stuff while code for cash runs through tests.

Attached are backtest results on North Finance MT4 Strategy Tester. Tick data was downloaded using new download feature in the History Center on Build 200. When trying to download tick data on IBFX, there were data gaps and data stopped at 09/29/2006.
I tested each Mode in Phoenix 5.6.04 as downloaded and with Daraknor suggested code changed + Count_Signal=2. http://www.forexfactory.com/forexforum/showpost.php?p=141935&postcount=901
You can see settings at top of each report.
Date range - 5/1/2006 to 11/17/2006
Deposit - $5,000, Risk 0.1

If settings are not correct for comparative testing, please advise.
I'm curious as to how much difference in results between broker MT4 platforms and new build 200 tick data compared to alpari data.

From 01May~24Nov, FXDD's history centre data.
Risk 0.05, initial deposit 10,000.

RegardsWell, there you go... It remains worrying to see such big differences between different people.
I wonder if we ever gonna find a way around this. And not just by all going to the same/most profitable looking broker. But being the ultimate optimist, I'm certain with all the bright people hanging around in this forum this problem will get sorted one day!
