First step is to check your symbol "Session" open and close times.

Can you post a screen shot ?
Also who is your data provider ?
What format have you got in Globalserver as the symbol ? ie is it GBPUSD or GBP.USD or just GBP ?

I don't use any data provider. I use XPO file.
XPO file contains daily data and 1 minutes data.
This is displayed as EUR A0-FX in Globalserver
I'm trying to take screenshot, please wait...

Thank you.

I set Date Range in 500, 5 min chart was displayed successfully.
But I want to let it display 5 min chart for about 9 years.
So the number of bar is about 300000.
Is this impossible?

In my view it is not possible to do this because it will take up too much memory.

Thank you for your advise

I want to backtest for 9 years by using 5 min chart .
Is it impossible in Prosuite 2000i?

As I said it would use too much pc resource and probably crash the program. It was difficult enough when I used to do it with daily data so 5 minutes over 9 years is going to be even worse in my view. Prosuite is no different (backtesting wise) than Tradestation.

I have the same problem here, when xpo file imported to TS with the EUR A0-FX market and it won't chart TS. Did i mess something here? Hope you guys can lead me thru this.

Thanks,
Raul
