@ontradingx I think simply the more you add the slower things are, As you said putting things like once per bar in places can help, generally the more you can move from on tick and the more you restrict the faster things become.
@ontradingx I remember the admin saying long ago this is an old relict of repvious versions of fxDreema. The 'once per bar' option there is not relevant now as there is a block doing exactly that, so you can use the 'continuous' option by default and then use the 'once per bar' block when necessary.
Could you please let us know about this issue (real time vs backtest when using bucket of positions).
This is very important for all your users (can they trust the software in terms of applying the same logic to backtests and real time trading!!)
As @TipsyWisdom said I'd rather use Real ticks than Every ticks.
Chose a broker that provide a good history (shouldn't be below 99%) and backtest on a real account rather than on a demo one.
I first use real ticks to make sure that visually it does what I want then I optimize and backtest with real ticks as well.
My fear with 1m OHLC is the spread hunting that could be "unseen" by the backtest.
@tipsywisdom Thanks my friend, I saw that I can download for (seconds), but I believe that ontick is better because it is milliseconds.
I will run my tests.
Thank you very much.
Now I'm looking for market depth, I'll try to put together another post.
@ontradingx The logic you requested in the first post, did you try it? When the gain is 50, the profit guaranteed is back 40 (50-10 insured) and moves 10 in 10 as it rises
@ontradingx In my two examples, one shows the profit loss of live trades and the other shows the profit/loss of closed trades. I see that you used the closed trades version but expected it to work on live trades. Use the other method.
