Has anyone else compared strategy performance in NT7 and NT8? I noticed when using the same data provider (Kinetik) and same strategy (SampleMaCross) I get very different results between NT7 and NT8 despite using the same settings.



and



I assumed i had to be making some type of mistake so I did a fresh NT7 install on another machine and the results were the same.

You have now "Historical fill processing" properties in NT8, maybe that's it.
I suggest you to compare each trade on both versions, you might see something obvious (different trading hours for example).

It has taken a different number of trades for starters, so the fill processing could well be a good place to start looking.
