EURUSD from different timeframe

Post by Wishmaster »

Hello all,

when backtesting EURUSD (tickstory export to mt4) e.g. in M5 the time from other timeframe is not set. Here is a example log comparing EURUSD to USA30.IDX:

Code: Select all

us.30+ (USA30.IDX):

M5 timeframe:

2023-01-03 07:15:00  Symbol(): US.30+
2023-01-03 07:15:00  iTime(Symbol(), PERIOD_M5, 0): 2023.01.03 07:15:00
2023-01-03 07:15:00  iTime(Symbol(), PERIOD_M15, 0): 2023.01.03 07:15:00
2023-01-03 07:15:00  iTime(Symbol(), PERIOD_M30, 0): 1970.01.01 00:00:00
2023-01-03 07:15:00  iTime(Symbol(), PERIOD_H1, 0): 2023.01.03 07:00:00
2023-01-03 07:15:00  iTime(Symbol(), PERIOD_H4, 0): 2023.01.03 04:00:00
2023-01-03 07:15:00  iTime(Symbol(), PERIOD_D1, 0): 2023.01.03 00:00:00

M15 timeframe:

eurusd+ (EURUSD):

2023-01-03 07:15:00  Symbol(): EURUSD+
2023-01-03 07:15:00  iTime(Symbol(), PERIOD_M5, 0): 1970.01.01 00:00:00

2023-01-03 07:15:00  iTime(Symbol(), PERIOD_H1, 0): 1970.01.01 00:00:00
2023-01-03 07:15:00  iTime(Symbol(), PERIOD_H4, 0): 1970.01.01 00:00:00
2023-01-03 07:15:00  iTime(Symbol(), PERIOD_D1, 0): 1970.01.01 00:00:00
Seems that only the timeframe choosen in mt4 backtester works for EURUSD.
How can I fix it so that EURUSD is working like USA30.IDX and getting time for other timeframes?

MT4 Version:

Metatrader
Version 4.00 build 1380
