backtesting
15 Dec 2014, 14:40


hello
 I test a robot (onbar h1 indicators) with F40 clues ... UK100 ..... the spread is fixed.
 j optimize with tick data from server (accurate) and m1 bars from server (open prices)
 results and the settings are completely different.
 can you tell me the most accurate method(tick data or m1 bar ?) for backtesting and optimization?
 best regards .

Ticks are the most precise method currently available in cAlgo.

I note that the robots are performing with the indices ..
