super strange backtesting results
09 Jul 2023, 01:11


So I am backtesting a strategy and it yields two very different results for "m1 chart with m1 data" and "m1 chart with tick data" for NAS100

I am only implementing onbar so I was expecting exactly the same results between the two
already deleted the BacktestingCache folder

I really think there is a serious flaw in the backtesting of ctrader and all results seem to be wrong as of my experience...

this becomes more tragic as some tend to sell their bots based on these graphs.

1- m1 chart with m1 data


2- m1 chart with tick data

Hi there,

If you share your source code I will explain to you why the results with m1 are wrong.
