A lot of those default EAs that come with MT5 won't work on the metaquotes demo account

There's nothing to analyze because you're testing the weekend.
Hi Evren.
Apparently when I change the date range. It works.
I changed the date range to "Last Year". It works.
I think it's a bug.
Here's journal dump for the strategy tester :

Yeah, that's not a bug... Look at the dates and what I told you. Your test dates were set for 2 days over the weekend. Of course it's not going to work as nothing happens on the weekend. There is no data to test and it's why the error literally told you: "History nothing to analyze".
Though at this point I almost hope you submit it as a bug report, so all the developers can have a good laugh.

Brain bug.

Hello All,
This happens to me 2 days ago when the strategy tester is not working.
I tried to reinstall, but this did not solve the problem. (Even on a new folder).
Here is a dump on the strategy tester journal report using the MACD Example script.
Hopefully someone here would be able to help. Thank you.
