Please see more info in that post: Remove Data Bars Limitations

I have tried to increase the maximum number of bars to 1,000,000, however it looks as though it maxes out at 100,000?  Which on M15 is only around 4 years.

Is there any way to carve out some additional data sets, say in 4 year chunks that I can do additional OOS testing on?
