MT4 now has new version - Version 4 build 604.
My MT4 platform is force to upgrade to new version(Version 4 build 604) in order to do the tick data conversion. Now this Birt's script is not longer support the older version as below.
MT4 builds up to 509
Birt’s CSV2FXT script v0.43 binaries (released 04.11.2013, compatible: MT4 build 509 or lower)
So i got to use new Birt's script, download and upgrade it as below.
MT4 build 545 or higher
Birt’s CSV2FXT script v0.46 binaries (released 09.02.2014, compatible: MT4 build 545 or higher)
After i run tick data conversion at my MT4 platform(Version 4 build 604) by using the scripts above (CSV2FXT v0.46), it successfully create the HST and FXT format.
Now i got to cut and paste these data (HST and FXT) into correct path for offline mode backtesting (Version 4.0 build 402). Then i open the this MT4 platform(Version 4.0 build 402) and drag and drop the script(v0.21) into chart as below to remove the 2GB limit as i usually do before.
Birt’s patch script v0.21 (updated 21.02.2012, compatible: MT4 build 225 – 409)
Next i start to backtest by clicking the START buttom, but it encounter errors as below for backtesting 15M, 5M and 1M data.
Then, i got to check my history data here (FILE>OPEN OFFLINE)
The correct history date should be from 2012.01.01 to 2013.12.31. So what is happening to my tick data history ?? Can someone help ?? Because of the conversion script (v0.46) need to set any optimal parameter ? I just use the default setting - Din't change value for the rest of setting but the spread i change to 2.0 (To show the script parameter in default value as below)
Appreciate for your help!!!
