no. that was my point. that wont come out in a demo; only in a live account. demo accounts are play. live accounts arent. so thousands and thousands of simultaneous orders sent through to the broker by clients using identical EAs on live accounts will result in problems (slippage + wider spreads) which do not show up on the demo.
