I am testing 5-min data on EURUSD mini-lots from 2005.10.20 to present. On 2006. 02.03 my EA takes one of many profits on profit targets and is flat. At that time it had 653 trades. Though there are signals after that, it takes no more trades.

Chart>Options are set to Max Bars. History includes the entire time I am trying to test. I am not checking the "Use date" option.

Some very large profits had been accumulated, and I wonder if this has anything to do with limitations on trading mini-lots. Any ideas?

A solution must be unconventional, but very simple. I am absolutely convinced of that.
