I've been unable to backtest a strategy unless the entire data has been previously loaded into a chart.
For instance, if I try to backtest an intraday strategy for 120 days, I'll have to load up a chart with all of the data and make sure I've loaded up the same time interval. Otherwise ESignal will just pop up a window saying it's loading data and hang until I click the cancel button.
Just popping this message on the board to see if this is a common problem or if there's a better way. It gets kind of annoying having to wait for all this data to load combined with waiting for the backtest results.
