Peculiar back testing
I was testing my EA this morning and save the settings.
After I came back tonight, the results are quite different without any changes to the period and settings and I'm getting this error from the journal

Tried to delete the tick file but same issue keep coming back
It looks like your current history have problematic bars with missing ticks. If you think this was not an issue some time before, then the history could be updated on broker side and downloaded to your terminal automatically.
If you think your local history is corrupted somehow and you try to remove it and redownload complete one, also make sure to clean up the tester cache located at:
/Tester/bases/<broker>/history/<symbol>/ /Tester/bases/<broker>/ticks/<symbol>/

Thank you
Let me try that. Is it good to always delete the tester cache?
Also I use another pc for network farm back testing. Should I clear the cache also?
update.
without doing anything and running the same settings, I'm not getting any more error...
