Spectacular news citycat. Manual traders really needs this tools.
I really appreciate and I'm happy with developers initiative. 
I've observed for a few days. Seems not many found interested about this little software nor so many downloaded it.
I originally though it's a useful piece of software and many will loves it...
What's the problem, is the description too hard to be understand or not so many people do their own backtest ?

What's the problem, is the description too hard to be understand or not so many people do their own backtest ? I have installed it and tried to use it but without success for the moment.
It's like the exe and MT4 are not communicating together.
I didn't get the Firewall alert you mentioned in the install steps, maybe it is related. I have not so much time yet to investigate further.
Thanks for all who like this software....
Now I have a new idea about the software, I want to use multiple instance of MT4 to display different time frame. You do trading on one primary time frame but all other time frame will by synchronized with it. When you press pause, al time frame will be paused. I think this can solve the problem Strategy Tester can only display one time frame only. Please wait…I think I can make it in 1 or 2 weeks time…….
jlpi, you should check MT4's Strategy Tester's journey to see is any error messages out there. If you see error messages, probably you haven’t installed VC2008 runtime or you haven’t configured MT4 to allow DLL import.

You save us a lot of time.. if we have a new strategy to test, it is best to use your program if this strategy is that good.. at the same time, improve the MM.. all very good..

Hi, most likely you close the MT4BacktestBuddy window before you close MT4. I will try to fix this in later release...
