I have a cycle for placing orders with a short slip, as long as the signal goes, so it's normal here, by the opening prices I can not, because the TS may imply entry on one bar several times, just as I was explained here, the broker does not close at the SL price and slips for example 1 point because of this on the demo at least somehow earns, and on the real one pours. For some reason the function if (Bid<=OrderVirtualSL - where OrderVirtualSL object is a line on the chart) executes a few pips worse than SL even in the tester.

With such a pips you understand one thing, that demo stays a demo...:-))), real stays real... including delays in the execution of your orders, queuing, requotes and everything else... You need to write everything in your code for real, fine-tune your battle owl for real, including error handling, including requotes, no connection to a broker (with virtual level accounting - it (connection tracking) - is critical) and, with a sense of accomplishment, go to all the trouble... - By the way, your company is strange... in the sense that there are no micro-accounts...kitchen?? ...:-))

By the way, the argument of a broker with no micro accounts is "micro accounts only exist in kitchens".

With such pips you understand one thing, that demo is still a demo...:-))), real is real... including delays in the execution of your orders, queuing, requotes and everything else...

the broker in question does not have requotes, it is not a gambling operation... although... almost everyone who uses MT4 is a gambling operation))

Try to imagine yourself in the place of a DC. How would you quote so as not to fail yourself? Re-quotes and slippages are technical aspects, they have been and will be.

I think this may sound a little silly and amateurish, but I would still like to hear the opinion of more experienced traders.

I have an stp broker - the broker does not look bad and ideally I would expect it not to play against you too much) and an EA that trades with pauses, I also have one EA with the same settings, now I have two questions:

1. Why is there such a difference in results between demo and real trading?

The question may sound a bit silly but I`m still interested to hear the views of experienced traders. 2.



I am a lawyer by training and it is not clear to me too, we are offered to play with whom and to what extent? And if I make a big deal, who will meet my demands? I have a lot of unclear questions about Forex, the government has a serious approach to finance in particular, while here everything is simple, even someone who made a number from $10,000 to $500,000 on a demo account. This is nonsense (fiction) really.

i have a stop entry, should i change it to a limit order or do you mean just a pending one? as i've been told here the main problem is not the placing of an order but the follow-up.

Stops can slide by definition. An order from the market can rejoin by definition.

Limit, on the other hand, if the price was higher by even a tenth of a point, should not slide. Unless they cheat, of course.

what do you mean, stoploss or buystop (sellstop)?

There is no difference. A stop is still a stop.
 
paukas:
There is no such thing as a limit stop


Dear Sir! Tell us dumbasses what to do.

What kind of limit is substituted for which stop?

Dear Sir! Tell us dumbasses what to do.

What is the limit of which stop to replace?

I'll give you a hint - there's no substitute for a stop limit. Any other questions?
