I noticed the days in which there is no Forextrade, for example, the days of 31st of December, and the 1st and 2nd of January, are showing up as flat days.

Is there anyway to get rid of those days because they throw off my backtests?

Hi,

Unfortunately these flat candles cannot be removed from the historical tester of Visual Jforex but you can get rid of them when testing in Jforex platform with the option "filter all flats" activated in Tools > pref. > Chart Tab > first section in the left.

Cheers

Hi,

We'll add a new setting to the historical tester that offers flat filtration options same as in Jforex. We'll keep you posted ..
