My program doesn't work. I think system facility X is broken.
It is almost always your code.

so please tell me how do I close a trade on EURGBP at price 1.23181 when the actual price is around 0.86 then i'll consider your input
This topic is a waste of time if you don't provide the technical details and code to reproduce the issue.
I have a multisymbols EA which run without any problem with the Strategy Tester (using 1 Minute OHLC or real ticks, Open prices isn't suitable in my case).

i'm also a programmer so I understand the "please give us a way to reproduce the error" thing, but it happens from time to time that's the problem : and I restart MT5 and it's gone
I wish I could give you better examples but I cannot
sorry
i'm willing to believe it's my code, but I don't understand how it can close an order at a price so wrong
I don't think it's possible hence I think it is a bugI had two other times it happened today (only screenshoted once).

Could it be an antivirus messing with the tester's cache?
Does this happen on other machines?
Another issue that I could think of is dying SSD, at one point they stop writing to specific sectors but will read the old data there.
In your screenshots it looks like metatrader is loading the same history for the multiple symbols(using GBPUSD's history for EURGBP).

thanks for both your inputs
my S.M.A.R.T thresholds are ok :)
I tried without restarting, and I got different results now, so two successive backtests give two different results. that's very strange
the problem is to reproduce the error, without it it becomes very hard to pinpoint it
i'll check my code

It's not the first time it happens. Wrong price is used instead of the right one, resulting in an enormous loss in the backtest
I don't think my code is wrong, because error comes and goes.
BTW it's an OPEN PRICE backtest
I restart MT5 and error is gone
