Dear Dave,

Thank you for the excellent source of EA customiser. You have put tremendous efforts into it. I am just getting a hang of the system and playing with the companion software. I was trying to test a particular strategy (and had the data folder downloaded) and was unable to do a meaningful test. I suspect the data was not extracted from the data folder for backtesting. I would appreciate your help with this problem. Thank you.

You can leave the data source as the web and the data will be automatically read or you can download the current data from here and place the unzipped contents into the Data subdirectory.

The automatic sourcing of web data has nothing to do with MT4. It resides on my server and I have verified that it is downloading correctly.

After loading the companion, don't change anything and just click on "backtest" and data will load automatically (EURUSD_H1 is the default selection). That will verify the data downloads correctly. After that make your selection in the dropdown of the Apply_To input.

Relating to the download of data to the local data directory, I am assuming you have carried out the full installation correctly from Post #1 and that your Data subdirectory is correctly positioned by that installation.

Yes, i have followed the your recommendations. Infact the default RSI set file that is automatically loaded works well with data loading well. Its only when I change the indicators to EMA that this is happening.
Thank you for your continued help

Changing the strategy and then running the backtest with no results would indicate a problem with your strategy rather than data not being supplied.

Can i ask you whether the settings applied in the screen shot are right? In this settings, backtest is not working.

Thank you

Yes - No parameters specified for Bolllinger Bands.

Please read the manual a couple of times and read the whole thread as well as viewing the videos.

Data is now available including September.

Some of you may not be aware that the Data can now be sourced locally instead of from the Web. The full set of current data can be downloaded from http://agilitytrader.com/Data/2016Data.zip.

The unzipped data should be place into Documents\AgilityTrader2\Data

Hi Dave, first of all, thank you for an amazing and ultimate trading tool.

I have been demo testing with several default and custom indicators and so far this tool is mind boggling. However, I have been also trying to make Agility to work as a panel/dashboard and tried to do this by selecting Advisory/Discretionary mode in the EA, however this doesn't seem to work. Is there something I am missing?

If I knew what FMI is, then maybe I could help you!

If, as I suspect, this is a custom indicator, then you need to provide appropriate inputs as a custom indicator. That will require homework on your behalf because as you will no doubt appreciate, I cannot provide specific code to cater for the needs of individual posters!

AT2 is not a dashboard but will give a pop up advisory if properly configured. All the information is contained within the help file.

I am about to release AT3 which will contain exactly what you are looking for.

You need to PM me and explain exactly what your requirements are.

Your request does not give me enough information to respond specifically.

Rather than saying what is the problem, it might be more appropriate and much better manners to say can you please help me.

Looking at your panel, in the absence of you providing a set file (you can upload, just rename to .txt), I would say that your condition 2 in each of the buy and sell entries is too restrictive. It might be better to specify within the last 10 bars rather than within the last bar for those conditions.
