      Hi there,

      New to FXDreema but really liking it so far. Nice interface! Just wondering what I am trying to do for a first practice is the following:

      1. Determine if a price is above the 200 EMA on S&P 500 and price is above on 200EMA on NAS100.

      However when using the backtest it seems to only download the data for the symbol I am on and not the other symbol that I have referened in the EMA condition check. Is there some setting I am missing to let it download the extra symbol data (I am using MQL5).

      Thanks!

        @saber333 When backtesting, you can only test the symbol you choose but if you want to trade lets say the eurusd while putting EA on usdjpy chart....you do so like this;

          Thanks James I think I’ve figured out how to do it. I can do it with the set current market for next blocks. This seems to of downloaded the extra market data in mt5
