Default Downloads "Last" data for "Bid" data backtest

Hi,

Why is it that NT downloads the "Last" data for the period when I am performing a backtest on "Bid" data? (i.e. I selected "Data Series": Bid/Minute/60)

fongler, we will look into it - is this a single series strategy you run here?

What dataprovider are you using here?

Single series. IB. I had previously imported all back-testing data and verified the presence of the Bid data in the historical data manager.

fongler, I just gave for example the SampleMACrossOver a run here on bid data only and there was no 'last' data downloaded into my HDM here when backtesting it - what symbols / markets are you seeing this behavior for?

Thanks
