Multiple timeframes back testing

Does anyone know of any problems MT4 has in backtesting an EA that uses multiple time frames?

I remember reading somewhere about it and a solution; but for the life of me, I can't find it (my googling is bad now since my meds are now kicking in).

If anyone has a link to this issue and a link to the resolution, I'd really appreciate it.

Thanks!

It shouldn't be too hard. Just make sure you have the timeframes needed hardcoded into your EA.

Don't know if this is what you mean. The thread is for an ea called vhands trader to simulate live backtest on one timeframe. A member called Rangebound then gave details on how to use multi time frames -http://www.forexfactory.com/showpost...&postcount=211

Hope this helps
