Hi there, I have been using data from TS to run strategies but I have recently moved to Interactive Brokers. I have noticed that my strategies do not match.
Does anyone know to setup the data from IB to match TS? I'm guessing there is something in the settings that I need to change on MC...I haven't figured it out.
Best,
Austin

Re: Data
The strategy performance depends on the chart type, resolution, and a host of other things...Hi there, I have been using data from TS to run strategies but I have recently moved to Interactive Brokers. I have noticed that my strategies do not match.

Re: Data
Strategy calculations will show the same results only if the following requirements are met:
- 1. The data is the same. If 2 charts are plotted from 2 different data vendors, most likely the data on the chart will not be 100% identical.
2. Chart settings are the same (resolution, data range, sessions, quote field and so on...).
3. The signals and dependent scripts are the same.
4. The signals inputs are the same.
5. IOG = on/off on both.
6. Extended backtested = on/off on both.
7. Bar Magnifier = on/off on both.
