Historical Data for Range charts

Good Afternoon,
I would like to know how far back the historical data goes for backtesting a cBot on Range charts? What year does the data start? Specifically Forex pairs, the majors.
Thank you, Roan

This is probably dependent on your broker.
Why not open your cTrader, put on a big range like 100 pips per bar, and see how far back it goes?
Thanks for your reply. Unfortunately, I don't have access to cTrader at the moment (no computer), hence my question. But I'll certainly do a check as soon as I can.

When you change bar sizes, just keep scrolling left to bring in more historical data. See how far the rabbit hole goes.
