    You can select Custom from the Backtest Length, I think it's up to 12 months.

    And you can set in MainSettings.XML to have MaxMonthsBack to something more than 12. 60 or 600 should be good enough to download almost all the historical data we have for the exchanges.

    So by changing the MaxMonthsBack to a higher value, you can backtest much longer than 12 months.
