Backtest EA using custom timeframe

Hi,

Does anyone know how I can test an EA using custom timeframes, e.g. 90 minutes.

Thanks,

Mervyn

For MT4, you have to create custom FXT files using 3rd party tools (search the Internet)

For MT5, you can build "Custom Symbols" (search here for Articles on the subject and also see the Documentation).
