My strategy worked fine then the results changed. I used the same EA and timeframe and its efficiency was still at 90% how could this be?
Are you referring to live trading or backtest results?
If its live trading, a product update, market & trade execution conditions or specific period may affect its results.
If its backtesting, your data feed of your broker's tester may changed.
I don't use strategy tester. I find its a total waste of time. The results aren't really worth reading.
Try running your results on a real account...Test proof, Good luck.

Can you explain this to me? 'Current' and its adverse effects on backtesting.
