Need help with dates in MT4

Hi
I'm trying to scroll to specific dates in MT4 using the fast navigation box but it doesn't seem to work

Eg. I wish to scroll to 15th Aug 2006. I enter 15.08.2006 and hit enter but nothing happens. I'm on the 15M chart.

Can anyone please tell me what I'm doing wrong.

Thanks

Most likely the problem is you do not have enough bars loaded. Go to
Tools->Options
On the chart tab increase the Max Bars in Chart: number.
Then close and open MT4 for the change to take effect.

Hi Sergiu

If increasing chart bars did not help;
Can you scroll back to a day in feb 07 or Dec 06? If you turn autoscroll off can you scroll back to the date you want using the Page Up button? If you can't then you don't have enough history on your platform.

Thanks Nvwine for the tip. There was not enough history in my platform.
