History for back-tests

 

Hi

I have a problem. (M1, USDJPY)

My metatrader uses only 27-03-2017 to 24-04-2017 range with strategy testing, even if I want eg. 01-02-2017 - 24-04-2017. 

I looked into "history center" and there I have a history for USDJPY since 02-03-2017. But still, how can I MAKE my strategy tester to use this data, so I can test my strategy with wider time range? And where can I download data for M1 USDJPY for 1 year back?

 
google for Tickstory and/or Birt's EAReview ...
 
OK Carl, thx for Tickstory, I have downloaded USDJPY for last 6m, then exported this data to my MetaTrader... and than nothing changes, my strategy terster use same narrov date range as before (27-03-2017 to 24-04-2017) even if I want wider.
 
Have you write-protected the hist.-files?
 
nope. 
 
problem solved :)
 
My EA works better on old lower quality data. Any ideas how to make the live data look like the old data?

What do you mean ??.  You can't modify LIVE data.
