My understanding is like this: if you are backtesting on daily bars, these two tests may be same. But if you test on smaller or bigger timeframe , the testing period will be substantially different

  I dont inderstand the difference between backtesting "last n 
  quotations" or "last n days". I get radically different results from 
  each.

  Can anyone explain what is happening ?
