Why is it that my "Strategy Tester" isn't calculating the entire date range I gave it?

 

I told the Strategy Tester to use the date range of 1994.01.01 to present and it always defaults to 2009.02.03 to present. Is there something that I'm missing?

There is enough data. You have to download historical datas.

Is there something specific I have to do to download more data?

Go to Tools -> History center or just press F2 and download the history data for currency pairs you need.

 
Ok, I figured it out...I had to go to Tools --> History Center and download the entire history from there!
