Hi coffeesnob,
Thanks very much for your encouraging feedback. Regarding the download process, the idea behind utilising/downloading the latest Dukascopy format is to captialise on the significant disk space savings (in some cases the data is 75% smaller). Once you have performed the download once, you should no longer need to do this again. That is, Tickstory always checks for the data on your local hard drive before going to the web (and it will replace old format files with the new format where applicable). The main delay in processing this data is the way Dukascopy structures their data which is essentially many disk files that need to be unpacked. To this end, there are definitely improvements to made here. We are currently making significant developments in order to radically speed up the data retrieval and export process. This involves developing our very own database technology to store the vast amounts of data and retrieve it quickly. Appreciate if you can bear with us as we work to incorporate this into future versions of Tickstory.
Regards.
