Why MT4 tested the EA for only 1 year when I selected 14 years?

I testes an EA, and I selected 14 years for the test (2000 to 2014) and it only make 81 trades. I checked diary and all trades are made in 2014. ¿What happened here? (I select do the test from 2000)
 
maybe you don't have enough data for those years ?!
 

I have it. I downloaded from history center since 2000. That is why I selected that dates for the test.

 

try putting more bars in the chart

mt4 > tools > options >charts > max bars in chart.

I downloaded from History Center. I am not sure. I guess is the folder EUSUSD in program files/history/downloads/eurusd?

only 19 MB

Except mbi chart only controls ram usage. You need max bars in history

I did that when I put only "9s" in max bars in historial.

 
This is already solved. I do not know what it was
 
Sometimes you have to restart MT4 to make it see the new history
