Hi all,
Candles in MT4 only display bid prices. This is proving frustrating when trying to visually backtest automated scalping strategies. In Trader Evolution platform, you can overlay ask prices on the chart which gives complete data for each candle. Does anybody know of a script or similar for MT4 which will overlay ask prices on candles.

Here's an example of what it looks like in Trader Evolution



Thanks for reading

If I'm not mistaken, MT4 doesn't store the ASK price ... So you can't have it for historical candles. Only the current ASK price. You can turn it on in the chart properties box (F8) > Common tab > check the 'Show Ask Line'.

ah okay, thanks. Well if the data's not there, there's no way to use it.
