Hi lovely community :)
I'm having some issues with Strategy Tester and really need a hand.
I downloaded the chart history of the last 6 months and exported it to my MetaTrader 4
But when I start the strategy tester, the chart starts to move and the Expert Advisor does not open any trades.
what should I do ? to fix the problem?
Thanks so much in advance 🧡 . I'm fairly new to this and of course backtesting is something I really need to work...
