New Install Not Working

[spottysallrite]

I'm in the process of moving to another computer. As such, I installed NT on that machine. NT seems to load just fine, but I get no results when running a backtest, such as "@SampleMACrossOver". As part of my troubleshooting, I unistalled, then reinstalled, but still got the same (non) results. Any ideas as to how to fix this ? I'm using the most recent version (8.0.26.0 64-bit).

Hello spottysallrite,

Thanks for your post.

So I may accurately assist, please answer all of the following questions.

• What instrument symbol (and expiry if applicable) have you selected? For example, ES 06-22, AAPL, EURUSD, etc.
• Do you have historical data downloaded for the instrument you are trying to backtest on? (Tools > Historical Data > Historical Data drop-down button)
• Or, are you connected to a data feed connection that supports historical data? If so, who are you connected to?
• Do you receive an error on screen? Are there errors on the Log tab of the Control Center? If so, what do these errors report?

I look forward to your reply.

Ok, I think I've got this fixed. Don't remember just exactly what I did because I was mucking around so much. I'm guessing that I made the simple mistake of not using the correct contract. Gads.
