How can I backtest my EA?

From your MT4, go to ‘View’, select ‘Strategy Tester’, choose 'Expert Advisor' from the list and set your backtest parameters.

For more details, please refer to the MT4 backtesting guide available here.

You may test your EA in live trading conditions on your demo account.
