<![CDATA[Forex Software — Tick or bar]]> 2020-02-09T00:21:24Z PunBB https://forexsb.com/forum/topic/8223/tick-or-bar/ <![CDATA[Re: Tick or bar]]> The fact there are more ticks than bars does not mean a greater precision, mind you, the so-called ticks in MT is not real tick data.

FSB is built on using bar data and that is enough, it gives speed and efficiency. When using FSB, focus on ambiguous bars! If there are 0 of them, the backtest is precise 100%. If you are not convinced, use Bar Explorer in FSB, and verify the workings of the strategy for every bar, does MT offers this kind of precision? No, it doesn't. Make sure you have good quality data covering lower timeframes as well, there is no need for tick data.

I think it's more precise to start from the ticks instead of bar.
