Is it possible to add a symbol that doesn't already exist and programmatically ?

 
Some brokers do not support all pair currencies, is it possible to add missing ones to load historical datas within metatrader and possibly programmatically ?
 

that defined by brokers, historical datas also come from brokers.

so you can programm but no informations.

No. find a broker that has the symbol.

What symbol you are looking for ?

I want to add stock symbol like GOOG or even simulate random quotes.
 

You can write your own history file, open the file "offline" and programmatically refresh the chart to make it "live".

"Period Converter Optimized" contains the hints to do that.
