in reply to: Setting back-test period causes issue in Strategy Tester #21128

Hi,

After some trial and error, its finally working. Actually the problem was associated with selecting the backtest period in strategy tester. When I had exported the tick data from 01.01.2013 to 01.09.2015, it was not working when I selected the bactest period exactly like 01.01.2013 to 01.09.2015 but when I reinsert the data by skipping the first day its starts working immediately.(I insert 02.01.2013 in place of 01.01.2013)

May be I am stupid enough if It works like this as usual but if this is not the case then may be the finding can help someone who is facing same problem. Thank for the Help.

Happy Testing 😀

Hi Tickstory,

99% modelling is different thing, even the strategy tester is not running when I export the data and launch mt4 using tickstory. Strategy tester stopping right after 2-3 seconds when I press start(after choosing the required backtest period)

In journal I can see the error “array out of range for “EA name.mq4”. I also checked the historical data available in m1 chart, and its not beyond the July 2015. Which clearly indicates that data exporting process not working with tickstory.

There is no error in the ea because same ea runs absolutely fine in another mt4 which is connected to broker server(both live and strategy tester).

I think something is broken, and yes just in case if it helps I am using Windows 10 Pro edition 64 bit. Please help me to resolve the issue 🙁 . Thank You
