Obtaining M1 OHLC data for MetaTrader 4 backtesting - MetaTrader 5 expert usage and screening advice
Get M1 OHLC data for MetaTrader 4 backtesting - MetaTrader 5 Expert is a MT5 EA related resource. Before downloading or referencing, it is recommended to confirm the platform version, transaction type, time period, whether DLL is required, whether source code is included, parameter description and historical update records.
Both automated trading tools and foreign exchange indicators should first undergo backtesting, simulated account observation, and small capital verification. Pay special attention to spreads, slippages, maximum drawdowns, position opening frequency, stop loss methods, trading periods and broker rules, and avoid direct real-time execution based only on titles or short-term profit descriptions.
