As far as I know mt5 cannot use 3rd party tickdata!
And some people do have the fear the migration of mt4 to mt5 will sometime eliminate this feature

Re: help
I don't know for sure but if you load indicators by either iCustom(..) or directly like iATR(..) they will need the hst-files.
Your EA needs only the fxt-file of the TF you want to bt.

Re: Tick-Volume
I can remember that you were asking for a 'public project'. But I don't feel competent enough to be a valid contributor. I even couldn't imagine how this could be done. :( Could it be that there is an another way to use real spread and volume? I don't know whether the idea might work. If you save sp...

Re: Tick-Volume
Thanks a lot!!
But why don't you have any plans to support real spreads?
As far as I know one can backtest MT4 with 'real' ticks without launching mt4 by Tickstory?
So what are your plans with Tickstory?

Re: help
The problem is this your paths aren't the default paths since b600+. 1) Most of the files should go not to s.th like: C:\Users\me\AppData\Roaming\MetaQuotes\Terminal\F3FCE634953CAFEE1AF7E348742EF8CB\history 2) C:\Program Files (x86) aren't accessible by normal users!! You can install your MT4 in its...

Re: help
Have you checked the links and paths (File => Open Data Folder) after launch?
Are the fxt-file(s) write-protected or are they re-written?

Re: Tick-Volume
May I ask a technical question - due to the changes and the new function coming with b600+. I hope you don't mind! The Volume-Array and IVolume(..) are long. ok. But the MQl4 Reference writes: long Volume[] Series array that contains tick volumes of each bar of the current chart. ... Example: if(i==...

Re: Can't define the mt4-folder to launch the terminal??
Hi again, Could it be this situation?

Re: Can't define the mt4-folder to launch the terminal??
Hi again, I have tried to find where TickStory stores it's default path (with which it is started) of the mt4-terminal - and failed. :( As I cannot change this terminal-path using the 'official' way I might be successful changing its 'set-file'. Can you tell me - as a temporary workaround - how I mi...
