Issue when duplicating bot
04 May 2014, 21:09

I duplicated a bot in cAlgo  (right click, duplicate) then when I re-run the backtest with out making any changes and keeping the same variables it gives different results than what the bot I duplicated it from gives. Why would this happen?

CORRECTWRONG

 

You see in the bottom picture it has different trades. The top picture is the correct bot, I did a right click duplicate, no go. Even tried to do re build it etc, but no luck. Why is it not working the same with I duplicate it. I also tried with just copy and pasting the code and that did not work either.

Please make sure that both instances have the same parameters and backtesting options.

I have made sure that they do, and I am using the fixed pip spread as well.

Never mind, please delete my post. Some how the spread got set to 10.0 pips instead of 1.0 pips for fixed. I am not sure how it changed. Sorry for the false statement.
