Is the 1-minute bar with a high around 100 and a low around 50 on 9/5/2013 for real?  (If so, I don't know why anyone in his right mind would risk his money in forex!)  I found a similar 500-pip 1-minute crash bar in AUDUSD.  In both cases, the price returned immediately to where it was before, but my virtual balance that started with 10,000 instantly became a sobering -120,000 as my stop was taken out on USDJPY.  If this is an error in the server data it would be good to get it fixed, as it instantly ruins backtesting that covers that period. This doesn't happen in production with real money, does it????  If so, I'd rather know now so I can stay out!

I'm an American, so 9/5/2013 to me is Sept. 5, 2013, in case there's any question about that :)
