Both computers are using the same exact market replay data. The data was gathered live today on the live version. Both are using the same exact strategy. Both are trading the same 10 stocks using same # of tick charts.
On the live trading in the real account today it made 12 trades. After market closed when replaying the market replay and trading those same stocks it only made 10 trades. I thought ok, maybe just differences between live and market replay.
Then I copied the data over to this second computer. Ran the same setup and it took 9 trades and nearly DOUBLE the profit! It was getting in and out at different times than the other machine. How are inconsistencies like this possible with the same exact data just two different computers?
Also, back to the difference between live and market replay. I understand there can be some differences, but what could possibly explain one taking 2 less trades than the other? Shouldn't market replay be VERY close to the same since its a recording of all the data it saw live that day??
