Strategy Tester not working

New comment
 
I can't get the Strategy Tester to work reliably. I'll run through this and my Journal shows that not every order is being touched. For example, it'll loop through 0-91 of 243 orders.

    int cnt;
    TotalTrades = OrdersTotal();
    for(cnt=0;cnt<TotalTrades;cnt++) {
        Print(cnt," of ",TotalTrades);
        OrderSelect(cnt, SELECT_BY_POS, MODE_TRADES);
        //  my trailing stop stuff
    }
 
OK... I found out what's happening. The Journal is unable to list every single line of output, so it just throws out some stuff as it goes on, then it dumps the real, complete output into this folder:

C:\Program Files\MetaTrader 4\tester\logs\

You better go check that folder if you do a lot of StrategyTester output. I had over 10 GB of data in there in just 6 days of testing stuff.

Anyways, this will help me debug my trailing stop problem because I've got one somewhere.
