Data mismatch between DukasCopy and TickStory

Post by protraderde »

Hi,

First of all thanks for such useful software. I installed version 19.8.2 lite just now.

I selected XAUUSD and date range 2003-05-05 to 2003-05-05 (which is the oldest date supported by Dukascopy), do export tick data for MT5.
I chose MT5 Tick data format for the export. But the saved file is missing a lot of data:

This is all it contains. When i download the same date from "https://www.dukascopy.com/swiss/english ... istorical/" the downloaded file contains 11.949 lines.

I am looking forward to your response.

All the best

Hi Protraderde,

The calendar picker is currently taking the current hour from the system clock which is the reason it's not capturing the entire day. As a workaround, could you please select one day before and after your specified date (4th and 6th of May, respectively in your example) to get the entire range of data. We've added an item to address this in the next version.

Thanks.
