New comment
 

hi,

i would like to use the MT5 strategy tester with an Expert Advisor running these variables:

leverage 1:1000

account size USD$100, $300, $500, 1000

is it possible?

i have been searching for articles on this (forum, google, etc.), but to no avail.

thank you

The MT5 strategy tester doesn't allow a larger leverage than that of the trading account the MT5 terminal is currently logged into.

So, in order to use the MT5 strategy tester with 1:1000 leverage you must first login into a demo or real trading account with at least 1:1000 leverage.

For the account size of your tests, you can always select whatever size you want.

Sorry Eleni but that's not exact.

You can set the Strategy Tester account leverage to any value.

Same broker account :

2024.11.23 11:46:38.483    LeverageChecks (.GER40C,H1)    Live chart: Account leverage : 200

2024.11.23 11:48:48.831    Core 02    2024.10.01 00:00:00   Strategy Tester: Account leverage : 1000

Additionally it's also possible to play with Symbol's leverage/margin.

What prevents you to do it ? Just set the value you want.
