Problem with FXT file

Post by sam123 »

After I installed TickStory Lite and export data to MT4 as described in Youtube, I launched MT4 from TS Lite (F8), but when I start to run a backtest for a pair I already downloaded tick data, I get red triangle error in the Journal tab, and the backtest does not start.
This is the error:
2014.05.01 08:22:32.897 TestGenerator: actual tick file "C:\Users\A\AppData\Roaming\MetaQuotes\Terminal\BE4947719A3C4B6B2217771FA7FC5EDA\tester\history\EURUSD240_0.fxt" found

I attach my history file screenshot from my tester folder.

Who can help me please?

Hi Sam,

From the looks of your screenshot, it appears that your FXT files are too large for MT4 to handle. The maximum size they can be is 4gb.

Please see this post for further info and workarounds:
