Back Testing questions

I have a question about back testing in Jforex. I'm currently using MT4 and dont like how it interpolates between the OHLC data and makes up its own ticks. Obviously this can cause accuracy issues.
You can import tick data into MT4 and use it for back testing but its a hack that people have created and I'm not happy with it. Can you import the historical tick data from dukascopy site (https://www.dukascopy.com/swiss/english/ ... istorical/) and use this in Jforex for back testing?

Hi PAG, the back testing in Jforex very simple with the historical tester, no need import or convert all ticks data everything in the tester...

Bye

Tick historical data is available in the JForex historical tester by default. No need to upload it separately.
