Yes it does work also on strategy tester. The default folder is /tester/files.
Does .CSV File Read work in back-test? I've created a News EA which reads .csv files and places orders. It works fine in forward tests but does not place a single order in back-test. All the resources on this forum talks about writing files in back-test to .csv. I just want to know if its possible.
Just be careful not to do excessive file ops - eg. with every tick you might be waiting a long time for your back-test to complete.

Thanks guys for pointing me in the right direction. Yeah, I'm gonna run this baby on 15min open only for a year period at most, then take a long nap. Those things aren't released on time anyway this should give me better sl and tp ideas.
