I finally found a source for free forex data that is complete, and FREE!
Here is the link to the file - Metatrader Free Forex Data
And the recommended set-up to back test your EA on MT4, follow this link
Set up for back test
There are other helpfull articles on that website also. I took a look at the two systems they are offering for sale and they don't fit my style. I like smooth equity curves. One of the systems has a 30% win rate, I like small gains with high win rates.

ReplyDeleteActually, I didn't just discover it, I hesitated becuase Ami is more powerful (AFL vs MTQ). I would really prefer Ami to trade forex but the interface is a bit clunky, MT is so clean. The backtesting is pretty crappy but fast to get working.
