No backtest results but forward results are fine

 
Hey guys,

I've had a problem lately where when I check my optimization results some don't show a forward results tab and some have got forward results but all the backtest results in the forward tab have a score of 0.00 however when I single test the strategies you clearly see that it traded on the in sample period as well. 

Has anyone by any chance experienced this before and knows how to fix this? Would be greatly appreciated!

Your post addresses multiple issues with optimization results, but "We are not mind-readers, nor can we see your screen", so it's hard to pinpoint the specific problem.

A screenshot of your testing configuration might be helpful.

What build MT5 or MT4 - to start with.

Sorry for the late reply mate! 

I'm using MT5 but I've been using it for years and I've had the problem of MT5 not showing forward from time to time, which I know a lot of people have. But now it seems to be way more then before.

The way I'm setting up my backtests isn't different in terms of testing configuration so it's really weird.

Also the no backtest results on forward doesn't make sense because if I run a single test it does very clearly show trades on the out of sample data.
