I have a preliminary strategy that uses Renko blocks as the primary chart function however I am not entirely satisfied with the built in NT7 Renkos function.
The reason why I am not particularity happy with the Renko blocks on NT7 are for two reasons, the first being they can only be built from tick data and they do not offer "tails."
For proper historical back-testing, I cannot find adequate tick data for a reasonable price or a large enough historical span. Also, the tick data that spans over several years is about 50gb worth of information for each instrument. The amount of bandwidth, formatting to NT7, transferring and importing would be a constant struggle.
So my question to this forum is how or where can I build out Renko charts (with tails preferred) on NT7 using 1 minute data? This is strictly for backtesting purposes only at this time.
Thank you very much!
Phil
