The next Zorro version, with the workaround, will be released in a few days.


jcl, thanks for your response, I finally got it working while trying to code your suggestion, I didn't understand what you mean by 'waiting a few bars before exiting' since when suscribing the asset and using NumYears=-1 there aren't any bars, what I tried was using another asset like EUR/USD for having bars but to no avail.

Today I tried again with this script

Click to reveal..
Code:
#define ADD_ASSET "Copper"

//int i;

function run()
{
//	if (is(INITRUN))
//		i = 0;	
//	NumYears = -1;	
//	string name = ADD_ASSET;
//	asset(name);
//	loadHistory(name,1);	
//	msg("%d",i);
//	i += 1;
//	if (i == 7){	
//		msg("hola");
//		
//		quit("Done!");
//	}
	static int i;
	if (is(INITRUN)){
		i =0;	
   	NumYears = -1; 
   	loadHistory("Copper",1);
   	msg("primero");
	}
	if (i < 4){
		msg("%d",i);
		NumYears = -1;
		loadHistory("Copper",1);
	}	
	NumYears = 6;		
   i = i + 1;  
   if (i==7)
  		quit("Done!");
	
}


and Assets.dta was set with

Copper 3.4000 2.0000 0.0000 0.0000 0.0100 0.10000 5.000 1.0

Is this ok? I see that the lot size is 100 times smaller than yours, is this because of the lot size changes of FXCM in january for CFDs?

Anyway, I trust you laugh and I will use your values for my tests.
