That can lead to serious differences in results. Because one platform can show over a period of time a red centerline and will only generate short signals where an other platform will have over that very same period a green centerline and will only generate long trades.
That is also why I say in my first mail that I send to each member with the indicators and templates ..."... I STRONGLY suggest to us the WHC platform".... to avoid discussions about differences in results.
People can use what ever kind of broker to trade from but use the signals of the WHC platform to take in their trades on their personal broker platform.

That is clear, but when you take WHC signals and trade with a different broker (what you suggest and I agree on that) very often you TP or stoploss will also be different and you will never have the same results that you have with WHC.

As I speak now there is sombody in the room still sitting in a MM recovery from last week because that person did not have the time to trade in between.
The person had a T/P on the Alpari platform where the WHC platform did not give a T/P. That person had 40 contracts on that moment with a S&R that was then taken etc.... To make a long story short the difference between WHC and Alpari was 1040pips in total (one thousand and fourty). And this in a matter of 30minutes also because of the amount of contracts of course.

According to my extensiv tests this is exactly true, but in both directions. One time the results are worse, other times better. Provided that the strategy makes on the average a gain it actually doesn't matter which broker you use (the spread must be identical of course).
But to be consistant you have to use the broker where you get the entry signals from. At least that is my experience from all the tests and my approach until I know better.
This has of course also an impact on the contract list. That is why I can't stress it enough that every trader must have his/her own one.
If the above trader would have had his own list and not depending on the official one, his result would be different.
When you don't have a personal contract list every trader will be soon or later in trouble because I bet that almost no trader is taking exactly the official trades because of many different reasons (human errors, PC/internet down, etc.)

For that reason I strongly suggest that if somebody wants to compare results that we all do it from an WHC platform because otherwise I will have discussion after discussion with members that would say that they do not have the same results as what I posted officialy.

Agree completely.

As you have been a member last month and I don't know if you have spend enough time in the room but if you did you will know that there was sometimes a debate about a certain trade or a certain result. If that was the case I always take the result that would make the least profit or the biggest loss. This way I can not be accused from members afterworths that I try to make the results look as nice as possible.

That is fair.

When I explain sometimes in the video room I give an example in my explenation where I say and if this would have happend or this would have happend etc etc....but after my explaining sometimes I forget to set every back as it should have been.
But as said I noticed that error last week already and corrected it.

-The question about the reset back to 1 contract is as I said because of the 20-contract rule.

Sorry Igor, but these results were taken from your NO FILTER sheet !! In row 301 you go back from 118 contracts to 1 and in row 334 from 152 contracts again back to 1 contract and this in the NO FILTER sheet. So this is still in need of a explanation.

Your 20-contr.-filter sheet looks totally different, never exeeding a contract size of 33.


-The 5th of Nov trades I don't know what you exactly mean but as far as I can see you would have a profit that is bigger then me so I don't think that this is a problem then. But as said this can easely happen between 2 different MT4 platforms.

The table of the 5th of Nov trades is just an example of trading with different brokers. You see that most of the trades are diferent, the results at least are pointing into the same direction. Again some times broker A and other times broker B is better.
