Is it possible to load more than the 12000 bars it tells me in the Data Periods window?

Not for daily bars, no. For intraday timeframes, yes.

Thanks for the prompt reply. How many bars can I load intraday? I've been trying some numbers, but I seem to be crashing OmniTrader haha.

Hi ZMTLock,

biggest question is how many symbols & how many time frames you trying to play with in real time testing before it crashes???

I can comfortable load 10K back test and 80K forward test (90K) on the big 6 Forex majors on one time frame only to test(3,5,10,15 & so forth)1 @ a time thou.

If your trying to load the DJI 30 with 3 different time frames OT doesn't like it.

Heres a tip! load the data only before you run analysis in the to do list speeds the whole process up.

Hope this helps.

Regards
