I created the latest LEAN in VS and downloaded FXCM data for "AUDUSD" (which is labeled as "quote" data).
The resuts on my local backtest are vastly different than what the QC cloud results show...
I have seen many other posts about differences between local & cloud and they were always answered with "Its the data"...
If the data sources are the same, why are my results so different running the same code?
How can I tell which results to use?

Hi Walt,
One idea is to plot/log the trades and plot the AUDUSD data both locally and on QC, then compare the trades and the data. This helps to see if there are any discrepancies or missing data.
Best,
