Tickstory

Thank you.

Looks like I exported with the wrong timezone previously. If I re-export and check 'overwrite existing files', both the HST and FXT will be overwritten with the new timezone right?

Hello,

I am using FXOpen, which uses GMT +2 and +3 with daylight savings.

When exporting, should I choose +2 or +3?

Daylight savings should be YES right?

Among the many locations for each timezone (athens, jerusalem etc), which one should I choose?

Thank you.

Hi Tickstory,

This means that you will continue to benefit from the Tickstory data you have exported and source...

thanks for clarifying, tickstory.

One more thing, for the 'Single-User license (up to 2 machines)', if I run one instance of tickstory on my home PC, and 2 more instances on a VPS, will there be issues?

Hi Huangwh88, This seems like a feasible solution assuming you are running the two Tickstory instances simulataneously. Regards. hi tickstory, Must there be 2 instances of tickstory running simultaneously? Suppose I only have 1 instance of tickstory running, and I complete the data export and launc...

Hello, I'm using tickstory 1.8.3 and wondering if the following plan is workable. The idea is to have 2 instances of mt4 running simultaneously to speed up the testing process. 1) For mt4 instance 1, fill up the corresponding data and installation folder details in tickstory. Export the data to the ...
