Hi to all,
I have a problem when I run backtest in Amibroker For forex EurUsd.
1) Ask Price : I have downloaded data by Tick Data Downloader... I have imported 1 minute Bar...but my data has only Bid Price... How Can I consider also ask Price?? So When I buy I use askPrice and when I sell I use bidPrice.
2) I want to include the concept of spread in my backtest...1-2 pips of spread per trade.
3)I want to include the concept of slippagein my backtest...I want to add 1-2 pips of slippage for trade
4)Is it Possible loading Tick Data in AmiBroker by Tick Data Downloader??? How Can I do it?

If I want to use Amibroker for Forex I must include concepts of : spread, slippage, ask Price, bid Price...otherwise the rusults are distorted

Thanks to all.

There are several ways. You can import your ASCII Ask data to Aux fields. Or import your ASCII Ask data to a separate symbol (i.e. EURUSDbid, EURUSDask) and use Foreign or SetForeign.
