Faulty tick data in july of 2015 ?
19 Apr 2016, 21:29


I thought I had made a good bot and after 4 days of optimizing for the time period of last 12 months, noticed that the good results were only gained from 2015, somewhere before august. The bot made 40000 trades there and 16k€ gain with only -20€ dd... So... I guess I need to skip the summer of 2015 if I want real results? :P

Dear Trader,

Could you please provide us with more information regarding your issue and provide us with a reason why you believe the tick data you receive from the server during optimization is not accurate?

I cannot exactly say that the data would be "faulty" and I'm not claiming that, but there seems to be some very special market/price conditions on a 2 month period in 2015, that give enormously different type of test result than any other period in the past 2 years. I believe it's already explained in the other thread: "Bad tick data ?"
