BTCUSD backtesting on MT4

[vanyo]

Hello,

I`ve downloaded the history file for CRYPTO BTCUSD and want to backtest in MT4. My EA is written to work with 2 digits after the decimal delimiter(which is how my broker shows the price - IC Markets), but when i backtest the results show 5 digits after the decimal delimiter.

Could you advise how i can edit the data so i can get a valid backtest for BTCUSD?

Any feedback is much appreciated.

Best Regards
Vanyo

Hi Vanyo,

The only thing to note is that when you are exporting, make sure you go to the Export MT4->Metatrader Info->Map to field, expand the drop-down menu and select "BTCUSD". This will automatically grab your broker settings for the symbol (including setting the 'Digits' field to 2).

Thanks.
