Hi everybody
I have realized a simple EA but i have noticed that if i set parameters with negative values on shift when i try to backtest it the program doesn't open positions.
For example, if EA include CCI period 14 but shift -1, on graph i can see signals, but if i use tester it doesn't open positions.
The same if i would like to test an indicator that has parameters with negative values.
Is it a limit of Metatrader or there could be an issue on EA/indicator?
If i put all parameters with value 0 or positive the tester functions properly.
Ideas?
