Backtest MACD is different than Chart MACD
I am back testing a strategy that is dependent on MACD values. I have both my normal chart open and the backtest chart open along with the MACD indicator on both charts. I have triple checked settings on both the charts and the indicators. Everything is the same. I am getting different values for the MACD on the bars. The only thing I can think of is that the charts have different amounts of data loaded. If this is the case how can I ensure that I have the same amount of data loaded on each chart? I've tried running the backtest back to the number of days that I have loaded data in my normal chart but this doesn't seem to work.

Hi, there is a similar situation between macd values in a backtest and and open chart of historical daily data. Presumably the historical daily bars are fixed and not "built", and I've checked the OHLC of the bars and they are the same, so how is this occurring?
Thanks.
