Hi Support,

I'm trying to implement Renko bars in a visual backtest mode, using API-2.6.49. It appears that ITesterChartController.ChangePeriod() method could be used, but this only accepts time based data types and requires Period as a second parameter.

Obviously for Renko data type we need to set a PriceRange rather than Period; is there another interface or method to do this? Or does ITesterChartController need to be extended to include a changeRange method (for range bars point and figure and renko data types)?

If you're writing a strategy using one data type, it is necessary to visually backtest with the same data type.

cheers

This is the case - Renko charts currently are not supported for back-testing.

hi,

Same question - different Chart Type - Does back testing in visual mode supports Range Bars? If so, would be great to see a code example of how to implement that.

Thanks!
