Topic: Data Start is different from Start Date Limit

Good Sunday Miroslav!

I specified what follows under Data Horizon section:
Use start date limit 2016-10-06
Use end date limit   2016-11-01

but

Data start    2016-08-23 00:00
Data end    2016-10-31 20:00

Please, how could I solve that? Data are taken with your script from my Fxpro-demo account and they initially were 1 minute data (Source: Forexite), I then used the MT4 converter to have other timeframes.

Thank you very much!
Angelo

Re: Data Start is different from Start Date Limit

Hello Angelo,

What is your time frame?
If it is H4, the "Data end    2016-10-31 20:00" you see is the Open time of the last bar before 2016-11-01.

EA Studio needs minimum 300 bars. This is the reason the app moves the "start date" to a earlier time.
