Backtesting data source setup

Backtest quality depends on history methodology, adjustment rules, and calendar alignment with TIQEX klines.

Granularity and calendars

Pin market and interval (e.g. equity/kline 1d); record window and data_version so batches stay reproducible.

Match live fields

Keep OHLCV fields aligned with production paths—do not mix adjustment conventions across markets.

Avoid lookahead

No lookahead: only information available at bar close; lock versions during sweeps; filter holidays via calendar.

History to paper

After backtests, paper-trade on delayed/live streams before production. See OHLCV glossary and endpoint pages.
