Hello,

I would like to download a tick data and a volume data from DAX and BUND and use it for a back-testing.
Could you guide me on how can I do it, please?

Kind regards,
Arek

Yes the volume data is included. There is nothing special to do.

Hello,

I would like to download tick data. Which chart shall I use it? OHLC chart or a candlestick chart? I need a tick data second by second so I know I can convert the data into...a Renko bar or Range bar - and so on. I am not sure which chart I can take the tick historical data from?

Before when I wanted to download historical data from the Point and Figure chart then I opened the P&F chart and downloaded the historical data from the chart. Now I am looking to download a tick data from the 1-second chart - but I am not sure which chart to put on? OHLC or a different one?

Please advice.
Kind regards,
Arek
