Including broker commissions?
-
I'm wondering if it could be possible, for backtesting EAs, to add a kind of function to include the known broker commission factor in each profit and each loss according to lot size?
This, for example, could be only shown on the chart as a final number at the end of the backtest.

This is something I heard about before. Sounds to me that MetaQuotes should make this possible in MetaTrader, but I guess it will not going to happen, at least with MT4. It's somehow ridiculous for me to make things to "hack" MetaTrader and change the way it work, but when it stays the same and some of the things can be better, I can think of how to make that possible. I have an idea to make a whole independent window, page or whatever, containing information of some important things happened. Something like better version of normal tester report. But I don't know when.

It should be a great improvement!
Commissions could become a crucial factor to care of when scalping the market. -
Since this option is available to include the commission in the calculations of the cost of an EA? If already available, I can put it as external parameter?
Until more!
