Why Forex Metal uses 5-digit quotes for most currency pairs?

We use 5-digit quotes because we add a so called fractional pip at the end. Instead of quoting prices with four digits, i.e. EURUSD at 1.3401 / 1.3402, we now quote the pair as 1.34014 / 1.34032.

  • Is the spread field in the strategy tester in pips or fractional pips?
