ok, i just found the issue for you
pls have a look of my demo and live log file
the first and end line of file is a trade record log which recv fill and close msg on onMessage
and the rest of log is all tick data
look at the line 92410, the open price are different from demo and live since the swap are applied
both demo and live platform backtest long swap for GBP/CHF is 4.13
when this is a buy trade, the open price should be lower than the original, but on live platform, the open price become higher instead of lower
and pls note that the report did really really wrong

and the last, what i want to know is can i trust the backtest on demo platform?

Probably difference in results is because of latest HT swap algorithm changes. Changes was related to this bug: https://www.dukascopy.com/swiss/english/forex/jforex/forum/viewtopic.php?f=16&t=56735
Therefore, current HT version on DEMO should return correct results.
