Topic: Help Me - Brazilian Stock Exchange

Hello my friends, I am still still trying to successfully use Expert Advisor Studio. My big challenge is to develop automated strategies for trading on the Brazilian stock exchange. I am absolutely sure that by sharing my questions here, a more experienced user will be able to help me. For some reason, Metatrader 5's "Strategies Tester" is not working at all for me. Even using Expert Advisors examples that are already built into Metatrader. I'm sure there's something wrong with me. That's why I need help. I will share what appears in Metatrader 5 and how I am setting up Expert Advisor Studio. Please help me!

Please post one of your strategies so that someone can have a look

I have had no problem with MT5, maybe there is something in your strategy that causes a difficulty

I am attaching the historical data of the broker I operate, which I exported from Metatrader 5, using the script "EA Studio Data Export"

As I intend to trade only LONG on these instruments, I have selected the "Long or Short" indicator in Preset Indicators.

Re: Help Me - Brazilian Stock Exchange

I don't know why any Expert Advisors are working on Metatrader 5's Strategy Tester.

Not even the Expert Advisors built into Metatrader 5 are working.

Re: Help Me - Brazilian Stock Exchange

Have you brought up this issue with your broker? Usually they can provide MT support and that's what is expected of them. If even example EAs don't work, then it might suggest a bigger problem needing broker intervention.

Meanwhile, do you get error messages? I see from your first screenshots that it actually is trading but what might be problematic is you have only 166 bars compared to 3k bars in EAS.

I see! Thank you very much for your reply, Footon! Please also check the Expert Advisor Studio settings I am using to strategize for this instrument.
