Custom Projects: "Automatic retest": Overwrites initial settings with wrong Currency Pair!

I had some EAS with for different currency pairs and different timeframes, that I wanted to retest (so the end date of the test will be updated).
As a matter of fact the initial settings have been overwritten, so the ea´s initial currency pair was set to EURUSD. 
Automatic retest ist not useable right now.

No it is not working!

I deleted the workflow and set up a new one with 2 databases.


In the first database I load the ea's I want to retest. In the second database I send the results.

As you can see in the screenshots added, the Currency Pair is changed from AUDCAD to EURUSD.


I would really appreciate a fix of this problem. Hope the screenshots help.

It is like you have suggested.


If I do the automatic retest and the exact name of the currency pair is not available, the retest is done with some other currency pair (which I did not want to test!)

As user, I would like to get informed that the currency pair is not available. Otherwise it is possible, that I make a huge mistake, when retesting a portfolio.


I would suggest to implement a warning, if the currency pair from the last test is not available. In best case the user then can decide, which currency pair he wants to use for this ea.


To summarize: It is not a bug, but somehow misleading behaviour.


Thank you for your help!
