Should we TRUST your back tested DATA or not ??

Prakash_Kale

Dear Team,

I have prepared a strategy & backtested it in AlgoTest software. The results are good, so I deployed it in the LIVE market, but the LIVE market's results are totally different.

Period : 1st July 2023 to 27th July 2023

BackTest : PROFIT of Rs. 92,641/- (including 0.5% slippage)

LIVE Market : LOSS of Rs. -7221/-

Could you please look into this & suggest, all details are sent to Support team on Email & on Telegram as well.

Should we TRUST your back tested DATA or not ??

Thanks & Regards

HI!
I am sure that backtest data can give phenomenal returns but can disappoint in live market. Only few carefully crafted strategies will give backtest like results.

Some strategies can give results much similar to backtest report even with zero slippage. Take care if the following:
Do not use small SL
Always use limit order with trigger buffer and limit buffer.
