{quote} The sequence of Open->Low->Open->Close for bullish and Open->High->Open->Close for bearish is pre-programmed into MT4 platforms to generate fake (non-existence) ticks. There is no way we can change the program.
I am not sure I understand:
MT4 will generate fake tick if there is no tick data.

What if we generate 1 minute data from tick data and then generate renko.
Will mt4 still generate fake ticks? is there another issue of non-time based renko bars that confuse MT4, thus it generates fake ticks?

The answer is YES.
MT4 platform does not know from which source (real-ticks or anything else) the M1 candles have been created.

{quote} Yup, got it upgraded a while back.
Hi, Do you think it can be fixed, the issue with the price numbers? Also, can you add in the description on the chart the size of the Renko bars in pips (like the pimped version is doing)? Thanks.

I've heard that offline charts do not work properly on Windows 10. I don't have Windows 10 OS on my computers, so I cannot possibly debug and fix this issue.
The Renko brick size is written in Points not in pips.

Help needed: I am running my own EA on an offline m1 chart made of renko bars. I used math7 EA to build these renko bars. My strategy is Intra bar trading. The main problem for me is Intra Bar on backtest, its tick by tick movements, before shaping 1 complete renko bar, does not represent real market. For bulish bar, backtest tend to shape the renko bar as Open->Low->Open->Close, while for bearish bar renko tend to shape the bar by Open->High->Open->Close. Markets tick by tick movement are not that simple. I cant find any solutions for this. Its...

Thanks for replying. They are working well for me for the past several months now, I've been using the 4.13 pimped EA (I can upload the EA if you want). Having one EA to do all the work for several charts is better, so if you could figure it out of wild be great. Thanks again.

Another "thing" with available range bar makers is that you need to open loads of charts.
Maybe Mathtrader has something similar to his renko builder like "MathTrader7_RenkoMultiChartCreatorEA"
which only needs one chart for any amount of offline charts:

Hi golden-way,

The purpose of developing non-gap Renko builder was to make Renko backtesting more close to the real-world, where there is no real gap between open of reverse Renko brick and the close of the previous one.
By range bars, if you mean shifted Renko charts, then such charts consistently represent a non-existing gap between open of a brick and the previous Renko bricks which is against the purpose of this thread.

Best,
Math

Just for curiosity, with no intention to start a flame discussion.
I compared one of your older EA backtests for the EURUSD 2010 on two identical charts, one rendered as the original Renko, while the other set as the non-gap. Since the tester used identical Dukascopy ticks I expected very close results. But surprisingly that was not the case, the results differed a lot.
So my conclusion was that those chart types were not quite compatible when tuning the EA (or perhaps only some EA).

Sure do they make a big difference in backtesting. backtesting on non-gap Renko charts is more accurate than that on standard Renko charts.

Well, I would not say more or less accurate, it seems like the EA places SL at different levels.
