Renko bar backtesting

Tick Data Suite v2.2.31 is a new beta version that adds a major feature: it is now possible to run backtests using Renko bars natively. This was previously possible only with the assistance of 3rd party software through a cumbersome process with a somewhat unfriendly learning curve; now it is available directly in the Tick Data Settings dialog and it can be easily configured with a few clicks. This is the first exotic bar type to get added with others to follow.

Other than Renko backtesting, it’s worth noting that TrueFx has completely changed the data structure and removed most of the old data from their website (the data starts from 01.2019 now) so TrueFx downloading has been changed to a mirror server and is now only available with an active subscription.

There are lots of other improvements and fixes, more information about which can be found in the changelog.
