Hi Grahal,

“Forward Test” in your reply, is that the same as AutoTrading mode?

Just want to clarify that I am obviously looking at the backtest results but that is in REAL TIME, meaning I am looking at the signals and orders as they happen now and comparing them to what the AutoTrading mode is sending to IG. I am not comparing orders in the past like yesterday or last month but orders as they come in.

My orders also happen at the close of each candle (1 min as example). It feels like there is some difference in those candle closes between the 2 modes otherwise the orders and their timings must be identical..
