@fabiobioware the calculation is correct the swap and the commissions are negative numbers that it adds to get the 2 of profit. For what you want you have to calculate them individually and add them as positive numbers.

@fabiobioware it work right

@skauch inserting the indicator in the EA code it is called as if it is a function and not an indicator itself.

@khacdiepvnc from what i know you can't in mql4, one more reason to switch to mt5

@khacdiepvnc if you use MT5 to add an indicator on the chart in automatic mode, in on init tab open a custom mql block and copy paste this code :

long handle=ChartID();
if(!ChartIndicatorAdd(handle,1,v::atrcurrent))
PrintFormat("Failed to add ATR indicator on %d chart window. Error code %d",
handle,GetLastError());
if(!ChartIndicatorAdd(handle,0,v::imacurrent))
PrintFormat("Failed to add EMA indicator on %d chart window. Error code %d",
handle,GetLastError());

First "if" is for a subwindow indicator like ATR in this case, second "if" is for an indicator in main chart like EMA.
v::atrcurrent and v::imacurrent you have to replace them with the handles of the indicators you want to use.

@skauch extern indicator must be built in ea to sell in the market.

Thanks to all guys for your suggestions

In the attached file below there is the report of a forward optimization of my ea and it has sharpe ratio as a result. In your opinion, is it better to consider sharpe ratio or profit more?
Ps:rename files to .xml because fxdreema doesn't accept them.

@lucivuur personally i prefer mt5 it is much more performing than mt4, but it also depends on the broker you use. Not all brokers offer mt5.

@fmazzot hi,for the first question answer is yes , for the second, custom indicator if not a default installed it must built in ea.

@alsomaedhy try to change broker or create a custom symbol with this guide https://www.mql5.com/en/code/20225

@alsomaedhy are you used every real tick data in the tester?

@seb-0 sp500 is closely related to EURUSD, usually a strategy that works on EURUSD also works on sp500. The goodness of the strategy is there but for a more credible test it simulates withdrawals at least once a year and, not negligible, the drawdown that is psychologically sustainable for you.

@alsomaedhy history quality is too low

@sauce an idea is this https://fxdreema.com/shared/5usG5wKfb
but without project i don't know,how to implement it.

@sauce it depends on the project.

@miro1360 in the tester with a negative number work correctly, it's in live mode that don't work fine

@ambrogio you're right in live mode one position is open every tick

@ambrogio to me work right, open just one position.

@alfredinho50 on lower time frame may be the spread.
