Thank you for your opinion. Mr.Joel.
I also worry about cannot backtest easily.
I don't know he has "edge" or not.
Because he is multi currency hedging strategy.
I have 5 years experience of forex.But I strongly felt I'm just a newbie.
I have to study on this site continually.
I've been fighting alone in forex market.
Thank you for opening such a wonderful discussion site.
I'm not talking about this developer, but I want to say some things about the backtest.
The backtest is overrated, is proportionally reliable to the reliability of the seller.
Is very easy when you program a EA, overoptimize the EA or even manipulat the EA knowing what happened in the past. For example, if you have an EA of the kind little continuous growth with punctual big DD or wipe of the account, is as easy bypass the trades where this happened.
If the backtest of an EA is bad or average, the EA will be a loser 100%. If the backtest is very good, there is a chance, but in general for some reason or other don't mean nothing either definitive.
Only the backtest since the date of publication and even more, the real performance, are the real proof.
