This is an apparent bug in the back tester. What I do when the backtesting begins is manually drag the indicator I get my ea data from over the price chart manually so I can see the indicator and the price bars together. Normally, when the study is done, the indicator which should of been showing, then shows up. Like I said, it is a bug that I have reported to MetaTrader.org some time ago.

Sometimes when I see the Visual Results from the Metatrader Strategy Tester MT4 displays ONLY the price window (with the positions).
Then sometimes a second window which includes the indicator i was testing, e.g. MACD, is displayed in a second window.
How is this controlled? At random? Or is there any clear logic for this?
