Hi Kwanann,

Appreciate the extra details. In the first instance, could you please check in your MT4 terminal's History Center and see what data is actually there? If your terminal is currently connected, there is a possibility that your broker's data is overwriting/back-filling over your export.

If this checks out ok, could you please try reducing your export size? There are limits into the data volume that MT4 can handle. If you try exporting 2 years of data (using another terminal if you don't want to overwrite your current export) and see if that has the correct result? Also, do make sure that the "Use date" is unchecked to ensure all data is processed.

Thanks.

Hi,

I just subscribed to Tickstory.

1) I am having MT4 Build 1335. I cant load my MT4 via Tickstory. Pls help.
2) When exporting data into MT4, if my test is only on H1 timeframe, is it mean that I can exclude other time frame (M1/M5/M30...etc) to save storage?
3) When exporting data into MT4 running with different broker server, do we need to adjust "Time Shift"? If our EA has trading time parameter base on the MT4 platform, what is the correct way of doing this?

Thanks in advance.

Hi Cmcmgoo,

Thanks for joining us! In response to your questions:

1) Could you please give further information of the problem you are getting? We have tested with the latest MT4 Build 1335 and there should be no issues.
2) That's correct. Only export the time-frames you use by checking the corresponding "FXT Time-frame" in the MT4 export box. In your case it will be only the H1 time-frame. This will save a lot of space as the other tick datasets will not be created.
3) Ideally, you should match the time-zone of the broker you intend to go live with. This will avoid any need to change your configuration between the test and live environments. Please see our manual for a more comprehensive discussion about time-zones. Here is also a similar thread which should help answer your question further (found by searching the forum for "time-zone").

Hope this helps.
