Error Message in journal
I encounter the same error. I run the pre-existing dummy EAs on the same data and it has no problem, but on my own coded EA, I get this error. Can anyone out there explain what this is?
Backtesting error
Hello all. I am not new to trading but relatively new to Metatrader. Want to automate some of my systems. Been backtesting some and just came up with this error no matter what pair I test it on. All my other test ran fine. Did a search but came up with nothing. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

Hi,
I moved your post to this thread.
But seems we not have the answer yet.
Some answer I've found n Metaquotes:
Don't worry about mismatched charts errors. Mismatched chart error means mismatch between M1 and tested timeframe data
Can you give an example ? And, more important, how do these mismatched errors effect integrity of Strategy Tester results ?
Hi,
You need to use "slippage" attribut.
Regards.
Linuxser had already found. Nothing with slippage.
"Use the "Download" function in the History Center to reload history data."
My own question is:
I'd like to ask my Expert advisor to close and delete all trades when "OrderSend error 130" occur and reload the expert after a delay of x minutes.
My brain is burning

I created this article awhile ago about getting accurate backtests from MT4. This is exactly what you're looking for.

"unmatched data error" is more or less something usual in mt back test. Do not worry about it
That is a mt specialty : "unmatched data error" is as usual as bad back testing in mt
