Hey
,
"Tick Offset" refers at how many minutes plus or minus the hour your bot will poll the market. For example, if you were using a 30 minute time frame your bot would tick at 10:00, 10:30, 11:00, etc. There is nothing inherently wrong with this except that a good number of traders also run bots that tick exactly on the hour so your trading results may become diluted. If you use "tick offset", say of 5, your same 30 minute time frame bot will tick at 10:05, 10:35, 11:05, etc.
There is not a "starter tick offset" because we want to avoid people using the same numbers, whatever you set other than the obvious (0), should work fine.
Please be sure to email me if you have any other questions
