I am sorry if this is already possible - I haven't added any backtest yet, but I'm going to.

The thing is that I am backtesting my EA's with 99% modelling quality (tick-by-tick data), as 90% is insufficient for scalping EA's. However, since there is a limitation of 2GB per file in MT4, I can only backtest 12-16 months at a time, so I would need to merge several backtests.

A hard thing about business is minding your own.

Merging several currency pairs together would be very useful too.

merging opens the door to manipulation. separate files can be loaded yearwise.

Take it easy ..

I don't see how?

EDIT: I don't see how it is impossible to manipulate it now anyways, anybody can modify the statement before uploading.
