Hi blogmax,

Are you using default settings ?

I believe your deposit size is $10,000 ?

Your timeframe is 1hour or 15mins ? -- shouldn't make any difference huh?

Pls share more...

Thanks.

Re: Megadroid Pro

just had two crashes on my alpari account as well, even though i changed back to the version ee1.

any solutions yet?

is there maybe a problem when running the original megadroid 1.11 and the ee1 or ee2?

haliban · July 17, 2009

Re: Megadroid Pro

I would like to ask, If anyone has done back testing on different pairs?

Is it as stable as the previous version on EUR/USD?

Thanks for the help!

Re: Megadroid Pro

I have done back test, on some other pairs, and at times I got my MT4 Crashed too.

I have not pin-point to whether is it caused by which currency pairs.

Historical data

A lot of you guys are doing backtests but you need to realize that the historical data that you get from the MetaTrader History Center is of very low quality.

I've spent days checking a lot of data from various sources. I've been using a MetaTrader script that I found on another forum that checks for holes in the data. I've attached this script to this message in case you want to try it. If you take backtesting seriously, you should. Alpari had over 10000 holes of 3 consecutive bars or more in their M1 data. This is particulary important for backtesting Megadroid because it actually uses M1 data (together with M5 and M15). Data from ODL, InterbankFX, FOREX.com, were just as bad, and it seems they all got their data from the same (bad) source (Metaquotes?)... the only thing they changed is their UTC (GMT) offsets to match their sever times.

Talking of UTC offsets, it is an additional problem when you use data from a brokers whose UTC offset changes to match daylight savings time. If you don't handle it in your code then the backtester will be taking trades in the wrong time window. It's easier simply not to use such data for backtesting so that you can stick to a constant UTC offset during testing. Some brokers whose data I've found switches UTC offset for daylight savings are Alpari (US and UK), Activtrades, IKON Royal, ATC Brokers.

The best data I've checked so far is Dukascopy's data. It only had 14 holes of 3 consecutive bars or more in their M1 data. In total it was missing around 900 M1 bars (out of a possible ~3.7 million), and I filled these using data from the FXDD web site, which left a few remaining holes, which I then filled with InterbankFX data. The problem with Dukascopy is that they don't want you to download too much. I think I've been banned/blacklisted already.

I'm now running optimizations of Megadroid Pro parameters with this data, and so far the results are quite different. e.g. for one particular optimization pass (same parameter values), using data from Alpari UK MetaTrader History Center, I got: Profit = 2433.37, Profit factor = 3.48, Drawdown = 1.4%. Using my new data, I got: Profit = 4174.64, Profit factor = 15.55, Drawdown = 0.61%.

The tests run much slower, I think because there aren't so many bars missing.

My tests have convinced me that good quality data is essential for backtesting, particularly for scalping strategies that are sensitive to small timeframe movements. Using low quality data to test scalping strategies are very much (though not completely) a waste of time and can give you wrong results (e.g. the optimal values that you find from running Optimizations may not actually be optimal).

I've read that the best free data to use is Oanda's tick data: https://fxtrade.oanda.com/your_account/historical_tick_by_tick_data.shtml

You need to have a live funded account with them to be able to get it. Is there anyone here who has an Oanda account and can share this data with us?

There is a free program to convert Oanda's tick data to other time frames here: http://www.tickdataconverter.com. But we need to get the data first.

to_ul · July 17, 2009

Re: Megadroid Pro

well its no use to use data from another broker or metaquotes data for backtesting, its just other data and isnt an indicator for success of any robot. always forward test it on demo or small micro account. even this is not good cause demo servers/accounts differ greatly from real servers/accounts.

sure its better to have data without holes etc, anyway robot behave differently when traded on real live accounts.

Hi Don,

I encountered several times of MT4 crashed when I run your modified version of megadroid Pro in my Alpari UK demo account. :( any ideas?

Re: Megadroid Pro

I think that the first version don't crash... So if we trade officially pairs, why not use the first version ??

Don · July 17, 2009

Re: Megadroid Pro

DO NOT use the first version, since that one is works correctly on EURUSD ONLY! Please wait for the conclusion of this crash-test. :D

Until that, you can use ee2 on the basic four pairs safely.
