This is no doubt a very silly question but I shall ask away. Im new to NT, like it so just going through some tutorials and decide to use a simple MA cross over strategy on a daily chart (for example the macross over example that comes with NT). When using minute bars it displays fine, but as soon as I change it to daily bars, the strat will not show any backtest/optimize results. I understand I am obviously missing something very simple, hopefully someone can point me in the right direction. Thanks.

I suspect that your data provider does not support daily data. A matrix of the various providers and the types of data they each support is listed here.
