Hello everybody.
I'm starting to create strategies on Ninja but I'm very new to this so I have couple of questions...

How much should I trust the Analyzer and backtest? Is it pretty accurate to what it would be live? (Taken in consideration a little difference for commissions etc)
How do you know when you can try the strategy on live account?
Any particular thing I should pay attention before to try the strategy live?

I've attached the result of the backtest in case you want to give me some suggestions or point out some problem.

Thank you so much!

I think most people don't trust the analyzer. I'm a relatively new NT coder too, and I've found it doesn't match my live results. I like the market replay, it seems to match live pretty closely. If you think it's ready, you can run it live on the simulation account to see what results you get.

You should probably throw slippage and commissions into your testing either way though, to get a more realistic result.
