Do you use forward testing on strategy tester? If you don't, I suggest you start doing it to filter several of these good results you mean and find yourself some of the reasons. i want your suggestions ...If an EA strategy is working really fine and showing good results on tester but not coming up with the same in real trading what can be the main reasons behind this?
But if you want to know the main reasons, the answer for me is quite simple: backtesting is backtesting and future is future, for any EA.

the strategy test must be 99.90% tick data, unless backtest is useless to judge the EA
This is neither a necessary nor a sufficient condition. This percentage only means that your are using tick data. That doesn't say anything about the EA or the strategy. the strategy test must be 99.90% tick data, unless backtest is useless to judge the EA

I don't think there is an universal answer, it depends of the strategy.
