Hello all,

This is probably a simple question but I can't find the solution. Is there a way to tell if the Last Tick was higher or lower than the tick that preceded it?

Thank you.

Hi,

Well depending on your strategy needs: If you're looking to determine a given tick move to build a scalping strategy that could make sense. Otherwise you can easily work it out with 10 seconds candlesticks using shift values.
Either-way, I've attached a vfs file showing previous and current ticks delta calculation
