    For info … I just did a backtest on one of my Algos and it all acted as normal.

    I  can’t explain why, but it would be worth trying different variable values in the optimiser to see if the Issue ceases?

    I concur with @IcaroFM findings, check …

    1. Image 1 during backtest … shows lots of results at 1808.8 and 1797.7 … as highest Gain result.
    2. Image 2 at end of backtest … shows only 1389.3 … as highest Gain result.

    What is going on??

    Hi @GraHal

    I was looking your results, but are different from mine. Have you changed something in the code?

    No changes, but my backtest was probably over less bars than yours?

    I think I had the bars set to 200.

    Can I trust the results in backtest and optimization right now or should I wait for a update?

    Thank you Nicolas. I’ve some algo in standby for this bug. Could you write here when the bug fix is online?

    @IcaroFM

    yours is a sort of abuse of the “@” sign, do not use it to urge some attention or an answer after just a few days!  Wait a bit longer before urging replies, if ever needed!

    Moreover, please do no abuse QUOTING, as well. Writing thank you Nicolas is enough to know you are referring Nicolas, quoting (NEVER quote code, please) makes posts longer and a bit annoying.

    Thank you 🙂

    There were few updates since my post, but not seen anything about that in the changelog. Will let you know.

    Hi Roberto, I used the @ symbol to make Nicolas have notification of the request. It’s been 10 days since this important bug was fixed, honestly it doesn’t seem too short to me to ask when the fix will be released. My last question I asked because I did not receive an answer to the penultimate and there was no answer to the interesting question of the other user (are the results of all the backtests at risk?). I know that Nicolas is very busy but I only need one answer, I seem to have always asked questions with courtesy. I will be more careful in the future in using the forum. Thank you

    The bug fixing is “in process” status, it should not take long to get it right. Thanks for being patient 🙂

    I appreciate that a fix is on it´s way and I understand that it can take some time. What I don´t understand is:

    -Is it not recommended to perform backtests at the moment because the results can be wrong?
    -Can backtests performed X days/weeks/months before this problem was discovered be wrong? (I had some problems with backtest results before this that I have written about in other threads)

    Hi Nicolas, to know if the release came out I have to look at the date on this window?
