Tickstory

While downloading the data, i get this error...how do i fix it?

Hi GFB,

The error sounds like there is something slow with your internet connection. Make sure you are not downloading too many symbols at a time. \it is also possible that other applications are using lots of bandwidth causing this issue.

Hope this helps.

yes it helps because i was downloading 10 symbols. Will try again one at a time. Thank you!

Hi, thanks.

I was able to download the data, it shows ok from 2012 on mt4 historical data but im having the following errors :

A/ when I run the backtester is gives errors : Test Generator: unmatched data error 1. volume limit exceeded and 2. high value is not reached from the least timeframes, price mismatches.

B/ even though there is data from 01/01/2012 it starts showing the first results from Dec 2012

I really appreciate your guidance. Regards.

Also, I get modeling quality of 51.73%

Hi there - if you are getting 51% modelling quality it means that you have missed a step somewhere. Make sure you launch MT4 by using the Tickstory launcher (press F8 in Tickstory). This ensures that MT4 uses the Tickstory exported files rather than overwrite them with its own. You will need to generate your export files again because it appears MT4 has overwritten them.

Have a view of this video which should assist you with the basics:
