(Brexit) … UK politics – Conservatives win a seat Labour has held since 1935

The (governing) Conservative Party has won the seat of Copeland in a by election

1935 was also notable as the year The Rolling Stones had their first #1 hit in the UK. True.

Back Testing Accuracy with OHLC data

Hello,

I recently discovered my back testing software NinjaTrader only provides OHLC data for the bars in back test.

I need to back test some 3 min bars strategies where my entry/stop loss / profit targets are calculated and may not be one of the four OHLC prices during the back test.

You have any suggestions or recommendations for this.

Thank you

  • I submitted a Smart-routed Limit order at to Sell 2,000 XYZ at $4.55 (with the spread at 4.50/4.55)
  • A lot of trades were going through at 4.55 but my order was unfilled, which I figured was because my 4.55 was “behind” other orders also at 4.55
  • After about 30 mins, I got a PARTIAL fill of 100 (which I took as an indication that my 2,000 x $4.55 order was finally “at the front of the line” of any other 4.55’s, right?)
  • HOWEVER, a lot of…
