Hi Jet_toyco,
The steps are as follows:
1. Select the symbols you wish
to export and then right-click and select "
Export to MT4...". For this example, we have selected AUDUSD, CADCHF and CADHKD as shown in the screenshot.
2.
a) In the "
Metatrader Info" tab you can change/edit any account information if necessary.
b) Then, in the "
Symbol" drop-down select the each symbol you have selected for export (i.e. firstly AUDCAD in our example).
c) Select your broker's symbol name from the "
Map to" box (sometimes it is exactly the same as Tickstory's symbol name but it can be different on different MT4 brokers). After making your "
Map to" selection, you will note that all the symbol properties (such as Lot size) are automatically changed/populated with your broker's symbol information.
d) Repeat step b) and c) every symbol you are exporting (or wish
to export in the future). (In our example, we will repeat for CADCHF and CADHKD).
3. Once you have configured all this information as you would like, press the "
Save as..." button. This will save all your settings into an ".mt4config" file for later use. You can name it after your broker and you can have one configuration file for every broker you wish
to work with.
4. Press 'OK'
to proceed with your export as you have configured it.
5. When you next want
to export, this file can be loaded again with the "
Load..." button. Doing this will retrieve all your account and symbol information you have previously configured and saved and means you will no longer need
to do Step 2 and 3 any more.
Hope this clarifies.
