I am testing a 1 minute system on SPY with data from AlphaVantage. It was working well but now I am getting the error "Could not load Benchmark (SPY) in this Scale/Range" Then I can't see the backtested results. Any help would be appreciated.

This was a bug fixed in B52:

So you're running B52 and still experiencing it?

Yes I am on build 52. Also a note, the symbol I am testing is the same as the benchmark I am using (SPY).

Also note I can see the 1 minute scale in a chart opened separately.

It should work, but maybe it's a special case based on the selected Data Providers, etc. Help us isolate that, please...

1. In your backtest, is single symbol or a DataSet selected? (If a DataSet, is it linked to a provider? which one?)

2. When you open a SPY 1-minute chart, which historical provider is shown at the bottom?

3. Which Historical Providers are checked in the Data Manager? Please list in order from top to bottom.

I am trying both single symbol as well as DataSet. DataSet is linked to Alphavantage.

I mentioned I could open the chart. Now I can't seem to do that. It was AlphaVantage.......UPDATE. just updated and got the chart to open and now the backtest runs...

I do not have data auto update. I typically do that manually. I typically check off WealthData, AlphaVantage and Yahoo Finance in that order.

I'll continue to monitor and see if I can figure things out.

Are you on a monthly plan at Alphavantage?

No I use the free version with the data limits.

Then anything can happen due to the serious throttling and delays it causes.
