History Centre updated - free history of minute quotations since 1999 - page 20

[[Deleted]]

I read the thread and it just makes me cringe... A year has passed and the holes in the history are still there, mostly in the same places... I've been collecting history for a year, I haven't even reinstalled Windows, and the terminal is still the same... and then one day I decided to look at the charts from the beginning of the century... downloaded the history and it had holes in it, about 3 months ago, F5 updates didn't help... had to just erase the history files and refresh by scrolling the chart... But you can't restore the minutes - they're just not given to me from my brokerage company's server... I worked with ticks, although I don't do pips (I just like it), now the tester is empty... :( Too bad... Traders already work in difficult market conditions, and they rewrite the history every week... One big disappointment...

Help, please. I downloaded the eurodollar M1 history, after downloading, metatrader was doing something (mocking) with the drive for 3 hours, swap file reached 3 gigs. After I finished in the window showing M1 Eurodollar, the current Ask and Bid were different from those displayed in other windows (M5, M15, etc.) After adding indicator to M1 chart, MetaTrader hung up again, tortured the hard drive and created swap file. I was waiting for 1.5 hours. I did not have enough patience and closed the application. When I run it again, the same story, it hangs. What's causing it and what do I do now?

1. Remove all indicators and EAs from the chart.

2. Recalculate timeframes

As soon as I start it up, it immediately hangs up, you can't do anything, it's loading something.

I told you - tear down the indicators and the experts. you can have a whole folder of experts at once

Hello.

Please help me solve the following problem. You need to read the .HST file and find the last entry in it. For example this:

see the standard Period_Converter script supplied with the terminal

sergeev:
Check out the standard Period_Converter script from the terminal package

ExtHandle=FileOpenHistory(c_symbol+i_period+".hst", FILE_BIN|FILE_WRITE);

The standard as well as the optimised Period_Converter creates a new file each time, according to the scheme:

A file is created in the int, the header and history from Bars-1 are written. Then new data is simply loaded, Flush and WinUpdate.

I need to read exactly existing HST (not create new one) and find last record in it (date and OHLC).

///

That's it. Seems to have figured it out. I was able to read it.

The only thing I don't understand is why I put array[] in HST header and two null lines.

   FileWriteInteger(FileHandle, 0, LONG_VALUE);      
   FileWriteInteger(FileHandle, 0, LONG_VALUE);       
   FileWriteArray(FileHandle, i_unused, 0, ArraySize(i_unused));

Renat:
When manually downloading in the "on demand" mode using the Home/Page Up/Left keys, the data is downloaded from the trading server. At the moment the depth of paging data M1 from the trading server is ~32768 bars (month), and other periods ~16384.

If you have not copied up the minute data by yourself, but downloaded it from the History Center, then most likely, the whole history will be from the History Center. The history in History Center is normal (in the latest version, we have cleaned the emissions), no worse and no better than the history of any brokerage company. Only pipers can catch the difference.

If the pipsmen can tell the difference, then what does normal mean? By and large all brokerage firms have the same stories!

But the history of the History Center has nothing in common on small TFs with the history of the accumulated terminal!
