Depends on what you need backtest? Type of strategy...?! some strategies can´t be backtested.

Hello Swatish

My EA’s strategy is a combined Scalp, Hedge and Grid with close parameters on a 1 minute chart.

I did try to backtest with those historical data that I do have, but it seems not to work as well as it does in Real,
so I believe that I need to use historical tickdata converted to use on MT4, to get it more precise.
