Can I upload an MT5 .xlsx report?

No. Use the .html report from the Backtest tab.

Why was my TradingView file refused?

Each tab downloads on its own. Download from List of trades.

Can I retry a First release upload that failed?

Yes. Add it again from the strategy's Releases tab.

Does a backtest show live trading?

No. It reads Simulated, not traded live. A repainting script can show trades it never traded live.

Guide

Why did my Nyria backtest upload fail?

Each upload message names its cause. Four things stop an import: a wrong file type, an unreadable export, no closed trades, or a duplicate. Match your message below. Then export again from your platform and upload the new file.

Nyria docs: Add a backtest

Fix a failed backtest upload

1
Read the message
It names which check the file failed.
2
Check the file type
It must end in .csv, .xlsx or .html.
3
Export again
Use your platform's trade list export, as the steps for it describe.
4
Make sure trades closed
Let the test finish so its trades close.
5
Upload the new run
The same file is refused on the same strategy.

Wrong or unreadable file

Choose a .csv, .xlsx or .html export: the file ended in something else.
Couldn't read this file: export it again from your platform.
The message naming TradingView, NinjaTrader 8 and MetaTrader 5: Nyria did not recognise the file.

No closed trades or a duplicate

This backtest has no closed trades: every trade in the test was still open.
This file is already on this strategy: export a new run instead.
A duplicate is checked per strategy, so another strategy can take the same file.

Check before you export

TradingView: download from List of trades, not the performance summary.
NinjaTrader 8: leave the grid's default columns in place.
MetaTrader 5: use an English terminal and the .html report.

After it imports

Set Show on the strategy page if visitors should see it.
Add screenshots from Backtest options.
Edit details to change the symbol, timeframe or capital.
