I am writing according to historical tester because I have problem with data. The point is, I have downloaded tick data (USDCAD) from 2000.01.01 but when I would like to run my automatic strategy to check how it was working since this date the problem occurs - historical tester is counting the algorithm since year 2000 but working properly (open positions, close positions etc) just since 2007. The problem occurs in every single currency pair. It looks like there is no data before 2007 or my automated strategy doesn't identify that period. On the other words, opening positions takes place after 2007 but there is data from 2000 and of course historical tester runs from 2000. Please give me some advice what's wrong and how to make test in the period of 10 years.
Thanks in advance.

print screen of the historical tester settings is attached below. One more thing, there are no error messages before 2007. I am quite sure that algorithm is correct because the same situation occurs in every strategy I would like to test.

You refer to USD/CAD, but your settings show that you have chosen only EUR/USD. Are these correct settings? Could you also provide with what periods your strategy works (i.e. which period of bars it considers and if it implements some logic in onTick)?
