Tickstory

Hi Trader2384, Unfortunately it's very difficult to troubleshoot issues with specific EAs and comparisons against other brokers. The best bet is to compare the bar charts between your broker and the Tickstory exported data while ensuring you have matching time-zones, etc. If there is a problem with ...

Hi Kiwifrog, Could you please elaborate on the problem? Is it just that Tickstory will not allow you to select the MT4 installation? Please check out this thread to see how Tickstory determines if a installation is valid: http://www.tickstory.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=4&t=237 With the latest MT4 cha...

Hi Trader2384, Before we consider other support options, is it possible to elaborate on the "hitches" you're coming across? The chances are that other people may be having similar issues so it's easier if we document the solution so it will assist others (or update our documentation accordingly). If...

Hi Positiveday, We're counting on users helping us improve the translations after they've finished laughing ;) Which particular language are you referring to? If you need immediate relief, you can delete the translation directory in the Tickstory application directory. We will take the suggestion on...

Hi Itinerant,

As far as I'm aware the MT4 back-tester does not allow you to cross-reference another pair.

Hope this helps.

Hi Postiveday,

Have you tried to generate the export with all the "FXT Timeframes" unchecked? This will generate only the bar data (HST files) and not the tick data (FXT).

Thanks.

Hi Gooly,

MT4 needs an FXT file during back-test so it will be created/used regardless. As far as I am aware, if you are using the high/lows of a candle it should be sufficient just to generate the HST files.

Hope this helps.

Hi - At this stage we think it's a permissioning issue within Windows that is preventing the read-only flag from being set, however we are still unable to reproduce it. Are you able to try this for us: Delete the FXT files completely from the tester/history directory and re-generate them. Does this ...

Hi Gooly, Not sure where you are getting this number from. Can you try to export with the "Suppress volume" option and see if you are getting odd values? If so, then it's most likely MT4 adding something. Check out this thread for further discussion about volume: http://www.tickstory.com/forum/viewt...

Hi Jethro69 , The title bar can change, however once MT4 has been successfully launched by Tickstory this should not make a difference. If you are getting 99.9% back-test results then everything is fine. Joy - it should not matter that your installation is in Chinese. You should ensure that you have...
