Cannot get Weekly price during backtest at strategy tester

New comment
 

Hi all,

 

 I'm testing my EA at strategy tester. The problem is I cannot get the price for  Open, High , Low , Close for weekly candle (PERIOD_W1) .  During the testing, I'm using timeframe M1, M5 and H1 . The debug code and result as below.

As you can see there, for all other timeframe, I managed to get the price including monthly price. The problem is only the weekly price is missing. Anyone has any idea how to resolve this. Thanks

Note: I'm using Instaforex broker.

// debug
      double high_M1 = iHigh(Symbol(),PERIOD_M1,1);
      double high_M5 = iHigh(Symbol(),PERIOD_M5,1);
      double high_M15 = iHigh(Symbol(),PERIOD_M15,1);
      double high_M30 = iHigh(Symbol(),PERIOD_M30,1);
      double high_H1 = iHigh(Symbol(),PERIOD_H1,1);
      double high_H4 = iHigh(Symbol(),PERIOD_H4,1);
      double high_D1 = iHigh(Symbol(),PERIOD_D1,1);
      double high_W1 = iHigh(Symbol(),PERIOD_W1,1);
      double high_MN1 = iHigh(Symbol(),PERIOD_MN1,1);
      
      Print( "M1=" + high_M1 + " M5="+ high_M5+ " M15=" + high_M15+ " M30=" + high_M30+ " H1=" + high_H1+
      " H4=" + high_H4 + " D1=" +high_D1+ " W1=" + high_W1+ " MN1=" +high_MN1);

 

Result :

2017.02.05 10:07:14.096 2017.01.30 00:00:00  Boboibot_3_8_Demo_Beta EURJPY,M1: M1=123.123 M5=123.139 M15=123.139 M30=123.139 H1=123.139 H4=123.146 D1=123.297 W1=0 MN1=124.081

 

 
Have you checked history center to see if the bar exists ?
 
History data and error 4066 - MQL4 forum You have to make sure other TFs/pairs are downloaded (which takes time) and then get the values.
 

Thanks for the reply.

I‌ manage to resolve it by deleting old history tester data *.fxt files in the /tester/history folder.  After that rerun strategy should work fine.
