in reply to: New HST format – spread & volume #20228

Never mind, I see that MQ has not implemented this yet. Its just an empty place holder in the HST structure for now. Bummer.

By the way, where does mt4 store the existing HST file that is used for a live chart? For example, if I have a live account with a M5 chart open and I look through the available data folders, I do not see a M5 HST file with a recent modified date. Where is the actual file? I ask I want to backup and import that HST file to a new account. Thanks!

Thanks. Let me know if you want help with a beta version. This product is great.

I am also interested in making sub-M1 HST files, if that is possible on the new build? Perhaps with TDS? Thanks.

Looks to me like there will be major issues with many EAs on the new build. Tickstory will have to undergo changes, no doubt. Just look at the new hst format alone.

in reply to: HST files in live account #19516

This is very helpful. I need to supplement the bar history for my EA, but I don’t trust the bar data loaded from the history center. I will run a few tests and keep a close eye on how the Tickstory HST files get modified by the live mt4 data. Thanks again!

in reply to: compatible with Walk Forward Analyzer? #19400

Well, if one uses Birt’s TDS to load MT4 with data loaded from TSL, will the WFA then work? Seems like it should.

in reply to: backtests cut off short #19283

Hey there. After trying out the standard MACD EA, I figured out, go figure, that this was an issue with my EA, not the data or load. I still cannot “like” tickstory, if that matters at all.

BTW, it looks to me like the 2GB limit has been lifted to 4GB on the latest build of MT4. Is anyone else seeing that?

Love having this data. Thanks!

Jeff

in reply to: Backtesting doesn’t start from data exported to MT4 #19206

I am having the same issue. Seems like I have to reload the data every time I test, and even then I cannot test over the complete date range (only trying a year or two at a time). Tried the facebook like trick but I never get the gold star for some reason (I also tried liking tickstory directly from my facebook account). All of my fxt and hst files are read only and mapped correctly. Any suggestions?
