Could you please tell me why every time I test an EA on real ticks (timeframe and broker is the same) the mt5 terminal downloads the same data from the broker every time? Isn't mt5 supposed to download this data once and then download it from my computer?
2. In MT4 in the strategy tester, is it possible to use indicator data from another currency pair?
2. Yes, but pair data should be preloaded in the quotes archive and will be available only from the interval you have loaded, for each TF their dates are different. For 1-minute pairs 5 months at most. Orders cannot be placed, but data from bars can be obtained, and thus from indicators. Tick data is also absent.
Mikhail's variant will only check the signal on the first tick of a new candle, if the signal is later than the first tick - the Expert Advisor will miss it.

So the test, according to Michael's version, should result in fewer orders over the same period?
2. Yes, but these pairs need to be pre-loaded into the quote archive and will only be available from the interval downloaded, for each TF different dates. For one-minute bars 5 months and no more usually. For each order, the orders cannot be placed, but data from bars can be obtained, and consequently, from indicators. I have no tick data too.

Sorry for bringing it up a second time.
That'll get the signal through.
Thanks, I'll try both.

Both variants work! Which one is better?)
