If i've got, eg, GBPUSD 30 minutes selected in FSB, and I hit Tools-Scanner, no data higher than 30minutes apparently gets scanned.

How higher time frame data will improve backtest reliability?

Also, on several different FSB versions, the data horizon doesn't seem to work properly.

Can you prove that with screen shot and further explanations?

Also, on several different FSB versions, the data horizon doesn't seem to work properly.  reflected also in Journal and indicator charts

You can see this if you switch on Corrected position price line on the chart [P]

FSB presumes this data is corresponds to the bid prices, right? So when filling a long order it will add the spread to the bid price to obtain the ask? And for short positions it will automatically use the bid price as imported from MT4?
Thanks,
Nuno
