Having a problem completing backtesting.

If I backtest 30 days, it will start on 11/9 but stop showing results after 5 days. If I backtest 5 days, activity log will show the first three days. If I backtest 2 days, the activity log will just show thursday only not friday. Chart settings were change for each. Bar based backtests . Trade activity is set from 11/1/2017 to Today checked. Save replay/backtest trade activity checked. Number of days to save in Trade Activity Log set to 30.

Found the problem. Renko box size was too small. Don't know if box size will effect real time trading.
