I believe it is not a matter of reliability, it rather removes candles with zero volume. The backtester probably would not start if they were left in the chart. The question is, whether they should have added a single tick to the every empty candle ...

Well, especially with range bars this argument of the candle length distortion does not seem relevant, when all the bars have equal lengths. But still you may switch the elastic display off, if you check the "Scale fix" in the chart options.

It looks more like MT4 rendering bug, the predictor marks are already placed in the "invisible candle" column, displaying the new candle levels. Try to set the color scheme to some default one.

Google for RAMDISK for Windows, purchase and install some of their products, and use the new drive to install the MT4. However, I lack the reason for such an action, there is no benefit. Besides the MT4 data are written to your user profile on the ...

It is possible, SVN is a command line executable, and the Metaeditor (as a compiler) as well. Though personally I would distribute the binaries (ex4) alone rather than compiling from the SVN source every time it changes (it may contain broken code ...

He was right, the range bars get chart synchronised with every single reversal candle.

What kind of chart is it supposed to be?

More simple is impossible

As far as I can see my Renko charts do look the same regardless on when they start. I think the point is that Renko charts build their bricks on levels measured from the zero level rather than from the starting tick (if this was your objection). The ...

Following your posts, you seem you have tested at least 100 EAs. Are there already any testing results available?

Market Dominator EA

MT4 brokers usually offer only CFDs on DAX, and they are based on whatever tick size. Some supply also the DAX future, and those would have the standard 0.5 point tick size and €25 per point. However, they are mostly an exception. The half point ...

Sorry, the slippage makes no change in the test result. The other attached EA only prints "MathTrader7_RenkoMA_EA USDJPY,M5: You can download a non-gap Renko builder from http://www.forexfactory.com/showthread.php?t=535170" in the tester.

Not sure what you mean - there is no settings for the TP in your inputs. Shall it be the 20-pip brick? Eurusd?

So 1-year test of USDJPY looks quite different, it can (at least) beat the spread. image

The trades seem to be following the rules: image I could perform the test with USDJPY, though I have to download data and generate the chart first. Is 10-pip Renko good for the USDJPY test?

I tried on 2010-2012 EURUSD 10 pip no-gap Renko, Dukascopy tick data. Here is the result. I completely disabled the spread to watch the pure EA bias. It entered the current spread, i.e. 15, but it makes not much difference in comparison to the ...

I was replying about the Renko backtesting, not about the generators of offline charts. The backtested Renko chart generated by the 3rd party is not related to any particular live chart generator.

That is true, however testing EA running on a Renko chart generated from the M1 (or whatever timeframe) is not the only way in MT4. For performance tests, the tester must go for the tick based Renko charts, like the one generated with the FXT ...
