Back-test Not Working (no test results)

Post by peterbarbagallo59 »

Hi team,

Hope you are well. I have followed the steps posted on your video to backtest on MT4, however when I go to backtest, my strategy takes 5 seconds and no ticks are processed . It's like the exported data is missing. If however I select Control Points on MT4, all works fine. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Best regards, Peter

Hi Peterbarbagallo59,

You might want to check the "Journal" tab to understand why you are getting no results in your back-test. Usually you will get an error giving you more information. If there are no errors and you believe there is no issue with the exported data (you can double-check in MT4's History center just in case), it means that your EA is simply not taking any trades. Please check out this item in our FAQ that might help further.

Thanks.
