'Open Prices Only' option

Post by Tickroll »

Is there anyway at all that your data can be used for 'OPEN PRICES ONLY' option?

If there an easy way, of importing your Dukascopy Data in 1 minute, rather than ticks?

If not, you should add the OPEN feature to Tickstory, for EAs that don't necessarily rely on tick data, but are in need of quality
data that goes back further than the 12 months some ECN brokers are offering on their
demos today, for backtesting.

Also, sometimes a trader may need a quick backtest, or Optimization in OPEN PRICES,
then test with Ticks, as tick backtests over a 5 year period, can take forever.

Thanks.

Hi Tickroll,

If you are using 'Open price' modelling then all you should need to do is select it in the back-testing menu.
Re: 1-minute data, Tickstory will automatically export this time-frame when you select it in the MT4 Export window.

Hope this helps.
