Hi,
I am a day trader. And want to set the "Date Range " to 1 day for backtest.
But it always show error that "Start Date must before End Date". So I have to test at least two days Bar.
Is anybody know how to set day range to 1 day.

Thanks

Is any way to do it in control panel as attached plot? I am not familiar with C language.
