back-testing
billy-currie:
dear traders,
I want to do some back testing going back about 1 year using 5 minute charts, It only goes as far back as december 2009, Ive treid going to history centre to download more bars of 5 min data but it wont let me? is all the history data provided by MT4 company? or does it matter which type of broker your using? do some brokers let you have more history for free? please help
regards billy
I did limited testing in the past and it seems that for all brokers the data comes from MetaQuotes and is the same (but maybe only for the brokers I checked?). Notice that this data is indicative data of unknown sources and should be used carefully.
