Hi,

I just checked out this strategy from a old post:
http://www.opserver.de/ubb7/ubbthreads.php?ubb=showflat&Number=407043#Post407043

The performance is completly different with Zorro 1.16. It isn't profitable anymore. What causes this heavy changes in the performance?

The performance is still the same.

For making performances comparable, you must set up the same test period and no weekend borders, which weren't supported in old Zorro versions. The execution engine is slightly different, so not all trades are 100% identical, but this does not matter much. Also the tested account was different, it was probably a mini account with a smaller spread. If you had the old account parameters, you could probably exactly reproduce the old equity curve. With the current micro account I get this curve:

Thanks, jcl!

I didn't take into account these Weekend setting. Seems to have great impact on the performance of a strategy. Another puzzle in developing strategies

Hi, I still couldn't get similar performance. Can someone help me with a note, please? Thanks

This is a very old thread. What do you mean with "similar performance"?

Thanks for the reply. I mean similar equity curve as in the attached figure.

Impossible to give you a definitive answer without seeing your script. There are some very clever people on this forum, but no mind readers as far as I know. Having said that, you can clearly see that your script is taking very different trades and therefore something must be significantly different.
