Historical Data - Model Quality

 

Hi,

how do I improve the quality of the historical data for strategy tester. I have downloaded all available data in the History Centre, currently trying to test GBPUSD on my MT4, Interbank FX platform but when i run my script the model quality is listed as 25%. Is there a better data source I can use or a way of improving my downloaded data?

Thanks,

T

With period M1, best modeling quality in Strategy Tester is 25%. You should get 90% using Every Tick model on periods M5 and higher.

Here is link to article discussing modeling quality.

If you search for forum posts regarding modeling quality, you'll find my own opinions.

Are you sure you require high modeling quality? Are you sure you require modeling at all?

'Modeling quality' has nothing to do with the quality of the 'data source' -> https://www.mql5.com/en/forum/124224.
