Hi everyone, I have always programmed in mql4, now I am using mql5. I have a problem: I am doing tests for an expert advisor that trades two pair at the same time (spread trading). To use qualitative data, I create custom symbols. However, for example, when I have to test the AUDCAD - AUDCHF pair, I see that the tester also searches for historical data for usdchf, and usdcad. Not finding them, it downloads them from the broker, but I cannot do the test for as many years as I want, being limited. I think it uses these assets to calculate the currency pair, is there a way to make it use a CUSTOM symbol for this too?
