Does anyone know of a good way to open and close orders in the mt4 strategy tester. In other words is there a tool or add on that lets you trade in the strategy tester as if you were trading live? I find most Expert Advisors work until they don’t, so I simply want to practice with what I see on the chart. Why doesn’t mt4 let you do that in their Strategy Tester?
Cheers, 
You’ll need to make a trading panel up using the add on from these guys
If you don’t have the skills to program, give me a few days and I’ll whip one up for you bro.
Strategy tester can be very powerful if you know a few tricks.
The reason ST won’t let you open or close trades is the program doesn’t recognize ticks to commence the actions. This add-on software from mt4gui resolves this issue.
Hi
This is a video that shows IceFX TraderAgent Trading Tool for MT4
if you look at minute 3:00 you will find the video maker is using an option called “backtest mode” to buy and sell during a strategy test on MT4
I haven’t used it since i don’t see any need for it.
