Forex tick data

[bulegila]

Hello,

I would like to note the differences in tick data between Gain and MBT.

I just noticed this morning when I disconnected from my MB feed and connected to Gain for some historical data that when the tick charts loaded with the Gain feed there was a DRAMATIC difference in the candlestick formations... the MB feed which I had been trading all morning with produced a much smoother bar progression than that of the Gain feed. I'm guessing this is because there were more bars (ticks) produced with the MB feed thereby creating a more reliable chart, this could have a drastic impact on someones trading strategy! ... and of course when I went back to the MB feed the charts were forever changed due to the fact that MB has no historical data.... what a shame.

My advise would be DO NOT rely on the Gain feed if you are using tick charts.

Using different data feeds can produce different charts. More information can be found at the link below.
