@IQFeed James Thanks, yes I will contact them to see what's going on.

@Big Mike I was on default which is ETH and backtesting last night. The backtest went haywire on specific dates.

I will let you know once I solve it.

@IQFeed James

Well... there is apparently a trading halt that I was not aware of that affects backtesting results on those dates.

I'm not sure I follow. The market was closed if I understand correctly, what is the issue? If you are seeing 'gaps' on your chart maybe you have a 24/7 template that is showing weekends or something, and need to adjust it to the correct sessions.

@IQFeed James @Big Mike I just found the issue.

The data is perfect, working like a charm.
I was mixing apples and pears in my strategy (different instruments that trade different hours) and that was skewing my results.

Thanks.
