mt4 terminal cannot run strategy tester from command... :-(

[mikeitexpert]

Dear All,

I am trying to run strategy tester for mt4 from command line to see how parameter changes would impact back-test results. 

I have found this link also I found a help topic "Configuration at start up"... so I followed the help topic at it was the same as the one in the aforementioned linked.

Apparently, I have to call the terminal.exe as below including the *.ini file path as parameter as you can see below:

cd "C:\Program Files (x86)\Alpari MT4\"
"C:\Program Files (x86)\Alpari MT4\terminal.exe" /config:c:\users\Mike\Desktop\spread.ini

Then, I created the *.ini file as below:

 ; common settings 
  ;Profile=test 3 
  ;MarketWatch=set2.set 
  Login=XXXX     
  Password=YYYY
  Server=Alpari-ECN-Demo
  ; AutoConfiguration=false 
  ; DataServer=192.168.0.1:443 
  ; EnableDDE=true 
  ; EnableNews=false

  ; proxy settings
  ProxyEnable=true
  ProxyServer=192.168.43.95:2080
  ProxyType=HTTP
  
  ; experts settings 
  ExpertsEnable=true 
  ExpertsDllImport=true 
  ExpertsExpImport=true 
  ExpertsTrades=true

  ; start strategy tester 
  TestExpert=SureForexHedging
  TestExpertParameters=c:\Users\Mehdi\Desktop\params.set
  TestSymbol=EURUSD 
  TestPeriod=M1 
  TestModel=2 
  TestSpread=2
  TestOptimization=false 
  TestDateEnable=true 
  TestFromDate=2014.01.29
  TestToDate=2018.01.31
  TestReport=xx.htm
  TestReplaceReport=true
  TestShutdownTerminal=true
  TestVisualEnable=false
  

When I run the command MT4 pops up but not test is executed ... :-(

Even the output file is not created as per *.ini file.

TestReport=xx.htm

Is there any way I could generated some more logs to see what exactly is going wrong?

Thank you
