Hi Simon,

Please check the email you received with your purchase. It contains your license key and a link to the registered version of the software. If you click on the download link and install this version, you will be prompted for your activation key.

Thanks.

Ok nice this worked. Thanks.

Now it seems to be activated and professional edition.

The next "problem" is, a started to download EURUSD from 01 01 2008 - today. The professional version is presented with "Fastest
(Optimized Multi-threaded, Unlimited downloads)" -> I have an 200 Mbits internet connection an this takes over hours !! Where can i see an download speed oder something?!

Thanks and have a nice day.

Hi Simon,

Technically speaking, the tick data is segmented by hour, this means that multiple HTTP connections need to be made for each day's worth of data (and each request can take a ~50-100 milliseconds to initiate). Simply speaking, your internet download speed is not the only metric that determines download speed. That said, you are going to get the most optimal download speed as permitted by the servers. In addition, once the downloads have been cached to disk, subsequent downloads will be much faster.

Thanks.
