Don`t trust Back testing results

 

I have developed a good and profit maker EA. Back testing is excellent and modeling quality up to 90% .But it has different results in a real live account. I wrote another EA to find out the reason and I faced bad news: Live tick data is different from saved tick data on servers, u can see in the picture, the right column is live ticks and the left is saved ticks at the same time … i cannot trust back testing. I will explain more ….
