Hi tickstory,
while backtesting my EA I observed some strange behaviour.
After some investigation I found again some discrepancy between visual and non-visual mode.
I connected the two corresponding bars with a red line.
Especially the upper one causes my problems as it changes from bullish to bearish.
Any idea what do do?

Discrepancy Visual - Non-Visual Mode
Re: Discrepancy Visual - Non-Visual Mode
Hi Ralf,
Could you please tell us which version appears when you open just a normal historical chart?
Thanks.

Re: Discrepancy Visual - Non-Visual Mode
Hi Tickstory,
to be honest ... I don't know what you mean by "normal historical chart".
And I did not see any version being displayd when opening a chart.
TS is version 0.9.2.0
MT4 PRO is version 4.00 build 509
When launching MT4 with no open chart, then the main window of MT4 is titeled When opening any chart it is named with the symbol and the timeframe (e.g. "EURUSD,M5")
Same when opening a chart after backtesting in non-visual mode.
When backtesting in visual mode, the chart is named like "EURUSD, M5 (visual)".
Hope this answers your question?!

Re: Discrepancy Visual - Non-Visual Mode
Hi Ralf,
Sorry, what I meant was if you go to File->Open offline-> Symbol (Timeframe) and view your chart, does it reflect the chart you see in visual or non-visual mode? Just trying to relate what you see in visual and non-visual mode back to what is in the MT4 historical database.
Thanks.

Re: Discrepancy Visual - Non-Visual Mode
Hi tickstory,
never used offline-charts before
Nevertheless ... when doing so, the offline chart looks identical to the NON-visual chart.

Re: Discrepancy Visual - Non-Visual Mode
Hi Ralf,
We have had no luck with replicating the discrepancy between Visual and Non-Visual mode with the same settings you are using.
Can you just confirm that you are not connected to a broker when you are running these backtests?
Thanks.
