hi I'm having an issue during 'auto trade system replay backtest' where the year turns into a weird long number (like 15009 instead of 2019). This happens when the contract is supposed to change (I am using the "continuous futures contract - date rule rollover, back adjusted" setting in the chart. I have followed the instructions for uploading a chart. http://www.sierrachart.com/image.php?Image=1600221118924.png You can see the year is listed as 15009 after the June/Sept rollover. I have the same results with SC data or with my brokers data, and I have tried over a variety of time periods with the same result. Thank you for your help. |

Thank you, I followed the instructions for deleting the data and it worked properly for one replay. But then the same issue returned, incorrect year after contract rollover. I opened my second installation of SC and have not had the issue. My second installation(on the same computer) is version 2131. The version I'm having the issue with is version 2159. Do you know of any settings that may be causing this issue? As far as I can tell they are set up the same. |
