Backtesting problems with 4-hour charts

Sometimes I'll run a backtest on a 4-hour chart and the script will do nothing for several days/weeks, then all of the sudden, it'll order a ton of stuff on 1 day.

The problem is that it keeps ordering stuff at an old price and selling at a newer price.

Start at order #57 on this report and look at the repetitive junk that comes out:

You would think I'd be a multi-millionaire with this report (173 winners and 4 losers), but there's some sort of bug in the interpretation of data that is just not right. I'm experiencing this problem on a couple different Expert Advisors.
