I backtested the strategy in MT4 and SQ and got matching results but very little trades. 

I think that the problem here is with the market prices in strategy conditions. It uses bid for long orders and ask for short orders, which is the opposite. 

The number of trades then strongly depends on spread and min distance of your broker.

If you set spread and min. distance in SQ data settings to the same value your broker has, the results should be matching.

You can also try to edit the strategy prices to use ask for long and bid for short orders.

If there's any other problem, let me know.

I confirm your findings, Tomas. Clonex, it´s best if you exclude bid / ask from the building blocks, because this always creates spread dependent strategies, based on a FIXED spread that you´ve used during backtesting. However, during real trading, there is no fixed spread (except with ugly MM brokers, haha) and hence such strategies are prone to trade very differently to their backtests most of the time. Best avoid creating such in the first place by disabling bid / ask (so it will just use Close instead).

Great! thanks for the idea Gentlemans!
