[amibroker] Re: Is it possible to backtest 1 second interval in AB?

I have previously corresponded with Ami support regarding this, and I seem to remember some internal data limit in several of the windows that only show 5-seconds as the minimum, although the actual processing will be done as many times per 5 seconds as you have ticks, assuming you are using ticks as the base interval. It is fairly annoying to see backtest results with several entry/exits during the same time, i.e. 09:30:05 but we have to deal with it for now. If you come up with a better way to handle this I'm open to suggestions!
