Hi Quochuy112,

On Metatrader 5 (as opposed to MT4), they may be using some extra criteria to determine the modelling percentage. As long as you have followed the tick-data import guide here, then you should be using tick data. You can double-check by looking at the tick data loaded for that symbol in MT5's History Center.

Thanks.

I want to backtest the M30 frame, do I need to load my MT5 any lower timeframes?

Hi Quochuy112,

I believe once you load the 1-minute data all the other time-frames are automatically calculated.

Regards.
