Testing 'CopyTicks' - page 10

 
MetaQuotes Software Corp.:

All ticks are absolutely accurate, with no omissions or other errors.

The tick base is the same for all processes in MetaTrader 5: servers, terminals, testers, etc.

I want to clarify whether this statement applies to ticks of MetaQuotes-Demo server?

Not yet, as this is a demo server and a start-up.

But now after the introduction of ticks access we are working hard to bring all the history of the demo server into perfect shape.

 

After a year, we summarise the intermediate results:

- the CopyTicks function works correctly (as described);

- the current tick data of the derivatives market obtained using this function coincides with the exchange data;

- futures market tick data history for the most liquid instruments is correct starting from 28.07.2016 (obviously, start of the latest server version);

All of the above applies to the MT5 terminal version 1395 and the real accounts of the derivatives market in Open-Broker. In principle, the topic is closed.

Thanks for the meticulous coincidence analysis. MT5 can now be trusted.

No, it's too early to close.

CopyTicks() is not quite correct

Are the key points (those in bold) the same for you?

Yes, the same.

Only I'm not looking at the story, I'm copying in real time.

Real time is also copying the history. Use COPY_TICKS_TRADE flag if you want to get TBC.

IfCOPY_TICKS_TRADE is used, there are no TICK_FLAG_BUY and TICK_FLAG_SELLflags

Have you read my explanation?

You are wrong - everything is there.
