Optimized results are wrong in Backtest
24 Aug 2019, 23:48


Hello,

After optimizing my bot (see code below) I apply the settings and run a backtest for the same period.  However it gives me completely different result. Am i doing something wrong or there is a bug? I use TEMA indicator

Optimization

Backtest

Thank you for replaying, Panagiotis. And who is wrong? Optimizer or backtester? Or both?

Thank you

Hi office3131,

The issue is in optimization and it happens when you are using data from another timeframe.
