How can I debug strategy tester?

Hi guys,

I want to debug my EA. But the conditions i am waiting for is not happen lot of time. So i want to launch a back testing and waiting my break point.

When i start the debugger, i have a new graph. How can I start the debugger for an back test?

Thanks a lot.

You can't. This is a long awaited (for years) but still not implemented feature. You may post a request to the service desk.

Or you can use Print() to show the value of your conditions in the log.

In the MetaEditor, use the Debug submenu "Start on History Data"

Then you will have the same as when running the Strategy Tester but with active breakpoints!
