SQ X Build 121 - STrats converted from SQ3 do not trade the same as SQ3 or MT4.

since this is not slight difference would be nice to investigate - becouse the issue is not only in this strategies that  Dave

  uploaded - but in all real tick test SQx vs. MT4

Our primary goal with SQ X wasn't to make it 100% backwards compatible with SQ3. There are some features, improvements and things done in a slightly different way, which could cause the strategies in both programs to trade differently.

As for 30% better results in SQ X vs MT4 we'll look at it, it is strange. 

I was retesting the attached strategy and I was able to get similar results. 

Most of the time, you won't get the exact matching results in SQ3 and SQX and sometimes there will be a significant difference.

The thing is we've changed the settings structure in SQX and also the strategy logic a little bit. 

Another important thing is that we've decided to use standard implementations of all indicators. 

Some indicators output a little different values in SQX and so the strategy behaves differently.

If you want to use your old strategies from SQ3 in SQX, just load them into SQX, but there is no guarantee they will work as they did in the old version.

I don't think it's a bad idea to import old strategies into SQX, but I suggest retesting the robustness of these strategies to ensure they will work well in SQX too.

If your results between SQ3 and SQX differ a lot, it may be caused by the settings you use when doing a retest.

There are some settings that influence strategy's behaviour and need to be checked when retesting. It includes:

• Replace pending orders option - in SQ3 this option is located in Strategy Options tab, but in SQX it is a direct part of an action block 
• Max period for indicators and price patterns + ATR multiple min/max - we don't limit those values when retesting strategies in SQX
• SL/PT min/max pips - in SQX, you can set that in Trading Options settings tab
