I have just learnt that the History/Default directory become redundant after you install another Account. I added a RoboForex-ECN account, and now I have both a RoboForex-Demo and a RoboForex-ECN directory. Now when I rerun both HST and FXT files go the right spot.
Thanks very much for the details – it really helps. From what I can see, you haven’t selected the “Launch MT4” button in Tickstory which is a necessary step to ensure the exported data can be used.
Can you please do this and try back-testing again? I can’t see any other issues with the steps you’ve taken. The messages you mention are only warnings and do not stop your back-test.
If you haven’t already, you might want to check out our ‘Getting Started’ video:
Hi Duker – please ensure you have applied your license by going to Help->License code and entering the license code you were emailed. Then try the launcher again.
OK. Now I feel like a right numbskull, because with starting MT4 from TickStory solved the problem.
In my defense though – a note for future development, maybe force the license code to be entered (if it hasn’t already) when this error occurs. The software never asked for a license key, and several hours in it was the last thing I was thinking off.
Thanks for the suggestion, Duker. We did note it in the email you received, but understand that it can be missed. Most importantly, glad to hear you’ve resolved the issue!
