Strategy Tester Indicator use Live Bid not Strategy Tester Bid

 

I am clueless on why the strategy Tester Bid price should pull the current Live Bid into the Strategy tester.


As a work around I can use Close[0] as a fix, but would like to know why Bid, is not useable. It then brings into question backtesting of Bid in EA calculations.

In my experience it doesn't . . . maybe you can explain why you think it does ? and perhaps show at least a little code ? what are you using to get the Bid price ?
 
It doesn't. I've never used Close[0] only Bid and Ask. Post your code.
