Doubts about backtesting results

[jfrimondi]

Hello community.

I am developing an automated strategy and I am having some results issues while backtesting.

My strategy sets a target of 100 points. I am getting weird results while swing trading. I really do not know if there is a problem with my replat data or not.

In particular, the issue is that my trades close at a better result that my defined target. Hence, I am getting not accurate net profit.

Here is a picture of what is going on.

Thanks to everyone.

Hi Juan, thanks for posting. It is possible there was a tick at that time and price. You can filter bad real-time ticks that are off the market price through Tools>Options>Market Data>Enable "Filter bad ticks" and test the strategy again.

Kind regards,
