It appears you are missing history for that symbol. Open it in a new chart, set it to the timeframe you're testing and press the 'home' key until the chart ceases to refresh with new data. Or google for how to download chart history. Also make sure you're testing valid from: to: dates that exist within your broker's history.

If you don't have any history, here's how you can get all available from your broker. - On MT4: Most brokers only have 32 or 65K bars of history per timeframe. That's 45 days of M1, 2.5 years on M15, etc.

Hi, I've built an EA and wanted to backtest it in a Strategy tester. When using historical data from the broker, on EURUSD, everything works fine. But when I switch to any other pair, strategy tester just stops at x%, around 10-15% depending on a pair, and does not want to go any further..
Does someone have a suggestion on solving this problem?
