TESTING TRADING STRATEGIES ON REAL TICKS

 

The article provides the results of testing a simple trading strategy in three modes: "1 minute OHLC" using only Open, High, Low and Close prices of minute bars;  detailed modeling in "Every tick" mode, as well as the most accurate "Every tick based on real ticks" mode applying actual historical data. 

 

Arranging a mailing campaign by means of Google services 

A trader may want to arrange a mailing campaign to maintain business relationships with other traders, subscribers, clients or friends. Besides, there may be a necessity to send screenshots, logs or reports. These may not be the most frequently arising tasks but having such a feature is clearly an advantage. It would be definitely difficult or even outright impossible to use convenient MQL tools here. At the end of the article, we will get back to the issue of using exclusively MQL tools to solve this task. Until then, we will use the combination of MQL and C#. This will allow us to write the necessary code relatively easily and connect it to the terminal. Besides, it will also set a very interesting challenge related to this connection.

The article is intended for beginner and mid-level developers who want to deepen their knowledge of writing libraries and integrating them with the terminal, as well as become more familiar with Google services.

Dear Sergey.

Are the upcoming changes in the strategy tester going to be compatible with custom configuration startup files, since no new commands are added so far?

Kind regards

I do not know.
I think - they are changing the strategy tester from one beta build to an other  ... so it is not a final one.
 

To update the MetaTrader 5 platform up to build 2129, login to MetaQuotes-Demo server and navigate to Help \ Check Desktop Updates \ Latest Beta Version.
