Re: The historical data in MT4 is empty after download the t

Hi TickStory, Indeed that I forgot to map hte 'EUUSD' to 'EURUSD.'. But what can I do now? Is there a way to repair it? Or must I redownload the tickdatas? Besides, I notice, after I've saved the MetaTrader Info (.mt4config) and re-open it, the 'Map to' is empty. This means the 'Map to' is not saved...

After I've started the MT4 via TcikStory, can I stop TS?

Hi TickStory,

For backtesting using the TickData I have to start the MT4 via TickStory. My question: after the MT is started, can I stop the TickStory for other use such as to download data for other MT4?

Cheers

Backtesting results different though using the "Every ticks"

Hi, I do an optimation backtesting first in order to get the "optimal" parameters. I use the model of "Every tick" though this will take very long. After the optimation I take the optimated parameters and run the backtesting base on them and I use the "Every tick". But the performance such profit, d...

Re: Which timezone should I chose by downloading the data?

Hi TickStory, Sofar I understand, the difference is little between 'UTC +2 with European/London DST' and 'UTC+2 for Athen'. Exactly to say it lies on Summer Time Begin and End. Otherwise they are the same. Correct? Besides, I just trade from 9:00 to 22:30. So I think there should be no difference if...

Which timezone should I chose by downloading the data?

Hi TickStory, My broker is in Germany. But I see their server in Cyprus. So I chose the UTC+2 for Athen since Athen and Cyprus are in the same timezone. Is this correct? But I also see there are many UTC+2 to be chosen such as 'UTC +2 with European/London DST', Amman, Beirut etc. HWat are difference...

The results of the backtesting optimation are different...

Hi TickStory,

These days I do backtesting optimation and I use the model of "Open prices only..." But I find the results are different. The first time I got the results are different when I do the second time. Is this normal?

Can I share the datas with two different brokers / MT4?

Hi TickStory,

I have two brokers and each has its own MT4 (but luckly the same version). I wonder if I can just download the historical datas one time and share it by these two MT4s?

Or I ahev to download two times? This will take double disc space though they have the same datas.

Cheers
