Cannot Calculate Prices for BRENT

Hi,

I have downloaded the data for BRENT. The data seems fine until my EA tries to place an order. I get the error message "tester cannot calculate prices".

I have mapped the data to the correct symbol. I have tried setting the Profit Calc Mode to both 1 or 2, and neither have worked for me, still get the same error.

The forex currency pairs work fine, this is the first time I have tried testing a commodity. Am I missing something. How do I get this to work?

Hi Parkzo,

Kindly refer to this thread to get the correct MT4 settings information for "special" symbols:

This should hopefully resolve the issue.

Hope this helps.
P.S. Don't forget that further information is available if you search the forum for the error you are getting such as "tester cannot calculate".
