But sorry I did not analize it especially.
I simple attached EAs to IBFX, North Finance and LiteForex Metatrader 9M1 timeframe) for several days to understand those differencies.

So it's indicative data? This is really interesting, I said that my EA was not curve fitted to the data but now I'm not so sure anymore.. it might be that my EA is curve fitted to only work on indicative data.. Might sound strange but there are some aspects that support this.
Thanks a lot!
edit: It surely seems that this EA is curve fitted to work on indicative data. Unbelievable but true, by altering the algorithm to take this into consideration I just raised the profits in backtesting by a big amount.
Now this is totally out of this thread but are there any bigger brokers that offer indicative data as their main feed

.. I would really like to try this with real money as soon as possible
edit 2: I retested this with historical database from alpari (the previous historical database seems to be from the history database which seems to be kind of crap) and it seems the results are the same so thanks for all the advice but this seems to be working fine with other data as well (as it should). cheers!
