Portfolio Trader Error

Postby gpw797 » 06 Sep 2019

This strategy in portfolio trader has been working fine and today I get the error, see snip. Nothing has changed and this is happening on portfolios that have been working fine.

This happens when I try to start live trading, start backtesting or optimization. I can't get past this screen

Tried the beta and same thing happened .. from a fresh install. I moved back to 12 but can't trade in Portfolio Trader (can chart trade)

gpw797,

This message can appear if at least one symbol from the list of symbols in the portfolio hasn't received enough data.

Please check what is selected for “Maximum number of bars study will reference” parameter (MaxBarsBack) in Portfolio Trader -> right click on the strategy -> Show Properties -> Properties. The number of bars in all data series in the portfolio shall be bigger than MaxBarsBack parameter. Please try to increase the Data Range in Data settings of Portfolio Trader or reduce MaxBarsBack value.
