I am new to MetaTrader and I have been using another program that I have had to go to great lengths to get the past Tick data to get accurate results for strategy backtesting. Meaning I wrote DLL to retreive the Tick data and then retreive the tick data for each time interval in my strategy. I did this so that I could get accurate reading on my backtesting. My question for MetaTrader. Lets say I have a chart in 5 Min intervals and my start date is Jan 1 2007 to the present. Will MetaTrader resolve the 5 Min interval to the tick interval data so that not only the Strategy is tested but the stoplosses are test as well?
