can you confirm this is correct. i installed mt4 on another hard drive. and made a shortcut in the folder with /portable. so when i exported it it said in mt4 my server was different or something. it said aafx is different from fxglory demo. so i went to the config file in roaming directory and changed it. it was in the dir tickstorylite. i ran the backtest on serena ea basic and no trades showed. i did get them to show on another mt4.
<Mt4Settings Mt4InstallDir="I:\fxglory mt4" ServerName="FXGlory-Demo Server"
BaseDataDir="C:\Users\Elliot\AppData\Roaming\MetaQuotes\Terminal\B592AE0CB1D51A758E4F8C307D11D8DE" LaunchCmdLineArgs="/portable" />
<GeneralSettings UsageInfo="" DisclaimerAccepted="true" LastRunDirectory="C:\Program Files (x86)\Tickstory\Tickstory.exe" />

Hi Elliot,
Apologies for the delayed reply - we've been enjoying the new year's festivities
Regarding the setttings, if you are working in portable mode, then your MT4 Data Folder (BaseDataDir in the settings) would need to be the same as your installation directory:
Code: Select all
<Mt4Settings Mt4InstallDir="I:\fxglory mt4" ServerName="FXGlory-Demo Server"
BaseDataDir="I:\fxglory mt4" LaunchCmdLineArgs="/portable" />
<GeneralSettings UsageInfo="" DisclaimerAccepted="true" LastRunDirectory="C:\Program Files (x86)\Tickstory\Tickstory.exe" />
Hope this helps.
