My prorealtime backtesting doesn’t use the period I specify

kiann · Mon, 10 Aug 2020 21:32:35 +0000

hi there, newbie on using the proRealCode platform. I have been trying to learn and set-up automated strategies, and along this, trying the back-testing function. My back-testing set-up doesn’t seem to allow me to set/utilize the back-testing period I specified, however. I chose (a) EURUSD pair, under (b) 15min time-bands, and (c) I did set up the manual dates from 1st Jan 2020. However, when I run my back-testing, I notice it just goes back to 31st July 2020. I attach the screenshots. Can support help, or any experts here? Kind regards

Check you have set enough units (100K would be best) on your chart.

hi @robertogozzi, thanks for your reply.

It worked, and that was what was missing.

Kind regards
