Hey all,

I've run into a problem when trying to back test Australian stocks. I'm selecting the All Ordinaries, forcing it to only use the Norgate Dataset, scale is set to weekly and it's run to check the last 5 years. I get an error saying that the benchmark BHP cannot be loaded in this scale / range.

I've checked the dataset in Wealthlab 8 and it's got the data in the chart itself. Does anyone have any idea what might be going wrong here? It's got the weekly data available. Not the daily data, maybe it's trying to load daily?

All data from Norgate is Daily anyway and scaled to Weekly when that's requested for the backtest (or chart).

1. Do you want BHP or BHP.au as the benchmark?
2. Which providers are checked in the Data Manager > Historical Data Providers?

If you make a change to correct something (like #2 possibly), click on the 487 Symbol(s) Loaded message in the lower left corner of the Strategy Window so that it reloads the data for the next Run.

I'm so sorry I'm replying so late. I missed the .au, that fixed the issue. I thought I already replied, thank you for your help!
