tickstory could implement some optional methods to clean the data when it is being exported, such as discarding a tick if the previous price is above or below a certain value. It would also need to log this information so that the user can keep track of how many ticks were discarded.
Birt’s csv2fxt script does stuff like this. So tickstory is actually good at creating the CSV files. I then use the birt script to convert into mt4 (fxt).
Yes, we’re working on providing filters so this sort of data cleansing is possible. Eventually we will provide a programming API to do this, however is we have a consensus on “must have” functionality, we can provide this in the earlier releases. If you have specific criteria which you would like to enter (such as “filter all prices above x%”), then please let us know the details.
