After today's MT5 update, I cannot run the strategy tester on custom symbol.

 

After MT 5 update,  I cannot run the strategy tester on custom symbol.

I've got the following message on the tester's journal.

[ cannot add symbol (my name of custom symbol) ]

[ symbol (my name of custom symbol) does not exist ]


I checked the data folder and historical data exits.

(MetaQuotes-Tester- 30C~~~~ -  bases - TitanFX-MT5-Demo-history-(my name of custom symbol) )


I don't know the reason.

Please help me.

The MetaTrader 5 platform update will be released on Friday, May the 29th, 2020. The new version features the following changes:

  3. MetaEditor: Fixed expanded search by the '\n' and '\r' end-of-line characters.

The new version will be available through the LiveUpdate system.

Should be fixed on build 2470.
