Why ChartApplyTemplate() in OnInit() doesn't work when testing?

You need to name a template "EA_name.tpl" or "tester.tpl", it will be applied automatically.


What should I do to change the properties of a chart on Strategy Tester?

You can't. What to do ?

  Thanks, I only want to see the simultaneous charts  in different timeframes.

  Is there any way to get this?

If you are talking about MT4, you can't do that while testing.

  Thanks，I am using MT5， so there‘s a way to change the Peroid of a chart while testing？  How to do that？

I already answered about that, you can't change the chart on the Strategy Tester.

With MT5, you can open charts with ChartOpen() function.
