Tickstory

What would be interesting (indeed compelling) is the reasoning overall and in each case for the recommendations. What and how does following the time frames recommended (i.e. back test lengths) add to strategy?

Did you look in the "Journal" tab to see if there are any errors? Did you try running the "MACD Sample" EA as a baseline test to make sure you get some results? The MACD Sample is the most simplest of EAs and should run without issue. If it does and your own EA doesn't, then please refer to this it...

As per question a), when you export you need to specify the entire date range otherwise it will seem like you're "missing" data. When you say that the "tester fails", are you getting an error? The MT4 platform should not need to be reinstalled in normal circumstances and if it does, it is highly un...

Ok thanks very much for your assistance so far which is very appreciated. Please find below point by point the specific areas and questions I have. I hope this helps to make clear my needs and allows you to address each area fully in order to help me use/understand the tickstory tool more effectivel...

Hi, Now I have a most distressing situation as a result of the last (reported) attempt at exporting data via Tickstory into the database*. MT4 will simply not work even after an attempt at uninstalling previous instance and reinstalling a new instance. This was the same problem the very first time, ...

Hi again - this is to confirm that in fact I managed to complete the export this morning (started in the afternoon of yesterday). On completion I did launch MT4 and run an EA to confirm model quality and that came in at 99.90%. This I assume was the test you required to affirmatively answer my initi...

Ok thanks - watched the vedio and exporting the first of 3 intended symbols now (looks like it will take the rest of this year at this rate though). Three quick questions if you do not mind (to help me manage the process best practice). a) I left the default time zone shift as is, hope that is fine ...

I have just acquired Tickstory Standard and as an initial step reviewed the guidance on use. This review has left me a bit confused about how to proceed. While I now have access to all the advantages the Tickstory tool provides, my immediate aim is not exactly to undertake regular back testing. My a...
