Bar data (H4 time frame) for MT5 backtesting

Post by sqt001 »

Hello,

The Tickstory manual suggested to export M1 bar data and tick data for MT5 backtesting. I am not sure if I should export H4 bar data instead of M1 bar data if I trade by the indicators of H4 time frame.
Thanks and Best Wishes,

Hi Sqt01,

You should import M1 bars as MT5 (according to their manual) will create all other time-frames.

Regards.
