Disliked{quote} Can you actually do tickmode that far back or are you using bar close? If so, which broker do you use? At best I can only do somewhere in 2014 and that is not even back to January? Thanks, DanielIgnored
In other words: MT4 does some "guesswork" (based on OHLC values) about what might have happened in the set time period of H4, H1, M30, M15, M5, M1...
Naturally the "guesswork" is more accurate in M1 than in H1 mode, but it also takes 60x more time to run an M1 backtest because there are 60x more candles to "model".
For example: for Grid/TP of 50 pips H1 is probably OK, however, for Grid/TP of 5-10 pips H1 "tick testing" would give a very crude and deceiving estimate.
