Back Testing doesn't like me.

[Salman Ahmed]

Hi everyone. I am new in fx trading. I wanted to test EA bot but I failed. Can someone help me?

Problems:

1) I can't find EUR/USD pair in History Center. (Image is inserted below).

2) I tried with other currency CAD/JPY in an M15 time-frame, and guess what? I failed. tester show me he is running something. but in the end, it will not show any results or graphs. 

I am using MetaTrader4, Version 4.00, build 1090.

Any help would be appreciated. Thanks in advance.

Please to sure that your Metatrader is connected to the broker's server (that you opened at least free demo account wth them.
How to open, or how to change demo account to see EUR/USD?
because the set of pairs is related to the broker only ... one broker os having sone set ... other - different pairs ...

It is for MT5 bu it works for MT4 as well -

As many people are asking about "How to open account with MT5" and "How to add the broker to MT5" so I want to remind the following links:
