Hi Dan,

The FPA demo has different results for two reasons that I can see. The first is that FPA had version 1.15 running a long time after the update to the newer version 1.17 was available. Apparently this was done intentionally. The second reason is that Forex Photon, being a scalper, has wide performance difference among brokers.

For example, take a look at Forex Photon's own live account with FXOpen here and compare it to their demo account with FigFX here. There is a very wide difference between these two. One reason is the broker difference and the other is that one is a demo account and the other is a live account.
