Why does my backtest get stuck after a few years? How can I prevent this?

Does it do the same thing every time you run it?
Does the run date/time exceed your local data?

Hi Michael,
We were unable to reproduce the issue. As the backtest runs, consider closing and re-opening the backtest results page to reload the results.
This algorithm also contains a universe of 1000 Equities. The free backtesting nodes are best suited for relatively simple strategies with less than 100 assets. For more intensive backtesting, consider upgrading to a more powerful node.
Best,
Derek Melchin
