Backtesting Crypto Strategies
Use MT4 Strategy Tester: Select the EA, choose "Every tick" for accuracy, set date range (e.g., June 1-7, 2026). Use historical data from Dukascopy or HistData.com. Export data: Tools > History Center > Export.
MT4 VPS Setup for 24/7 Trading
Running EA on personal PC risks downtime. Rent a Forex VPS (e.g., Amazon AWS or cheap providers like Contabo). Install MT4, copy your EA, and set the same DLL permissions. Test with ping under 5ms for crypto exchanges.
