Something wrong with adx in meta4. its very strange that never goes below both DMIS. Does anyone hv the same problem and any ideas how we can fix it??

When u select 'custom period' i account history, it will select based on time as well.. actually the current time. So if u select with the default dates, u get nothing.

Cheers Martin P.S Having the ability to save...
