How to remove autotrade history in backtesting

 

How can I remove those arrows autotrade history in backtesting, I am having a hard time identifying the backtest trades as it is cluttered by those autotrade history.

 

I am having the same issue - did you find a solution? 

 
Visual mode and a new chart will be opened
 

I have cleared all objects from chart but on each trial backtest of the EA  - there are many many 'autotrades' alongside the actual trades executed by my EA. 

I have seen other older posts suggesting ways to remove these via Tools >> Options >> Trade, but this is not the case in MT5 platform. Do you use MT5? 

 

Hi all,

I found solution to this problem. Do the following:

1) Create new chart for required product/pair

2) Right-click on chart and choose 'Properties' 

3) Untick 'Show Trade History' 

4) Save template as "tester"

5) Run backtest in visual mode 

6) Voila! No more autotrade arrows

The template ordering for new charts is «EAname».tpl, (if tester) tester.tpl, (if debugging) debug.tpl (if offline chart) offline.tpl, and then Default.tpl.

Set your chart the way you want and save a template and then apply it onto all other existing charts.

A template is just a text file. You can edit it.
