{quote} Could you explain a little more? I don't understand the volume part. If you want post the csv file, I will include the correction formula and post it back so that you can use that excel template for future uses. It is not good to make the corrections in mt4, it will cause other problems. It is better to make the corrections in csv file than import to mt4..

vvv{quote} the idea that I have is: - Create a script to attach a graphic renko, generate the .csv file. - The script assigned to each candle renko a single date and time to avoid the error that occurs when you manually import the .csv file I do think this script is not complicated, he can also add other functions that enable to do something more simple the renko backtest. I say the volume is: - The csv file contains the information of date, time OHLC and volume. - Can I replace the volume with duration information renko candle in seconds

I'm working on a Renko chart creator EA that changes the size of Renko bricks based on the average of N last range of candles of some standard chart (for example, M1). I defined a minimum Renko brick size (for example 100 points). Some preliminary results are shown below. What do you think about the best strategy to change the Renko brick size based on the recent market price action? {image} {image}

{quote} I think you can replace the volume with duration, only requirement is that it must be an integer number and greater than 0....

{quote} Hello MathTrader7 I can ask you a question? in your backtest, you can program something to avoid times of high volatility? so you could avoid the news and high slippages .. this could by measuring the duration of each Renko. If the duration is very short, it is assumed that there is high volatility.

Hi Math, I use a script, that directly creates fxt-Renko-files from tick data. Although I selected the non-gap-option, your EAs' stop backtesting with the message "Please attach the EA to a non-gap Renko chart". Is there any option to suppress this behaviour ? Thanks, Oliver {image}
