Every time the Historical Tester is run (via the API in Eclipse), it needs to connect to the JForex server. Skipping the lines of code that connects to the server prevents the Historical Tester from working.

The only real need for the Historical Tester to connect to the server is to download new data. However if the user already has all necessary data to cover the test period, there is no need to connect to the server.

So could you please remove the requirement to connect to the server every single time the Historical Tester is run? The Historical Tester should only need to connect when the user wishes to download new data. This would allow us to work on our JForex strategies without an internet connection, such as during times when our internet connection is temporarily down or when we are traveling.
