struct TestHistory in fxt

New comment
 
Can you please clarify on the 'flags' field in the 'struct TestHistory' (fxt files)
What is the meaning of this field? I see it takes values of 0,1,2,3....

Thanks
 
if flag is 0 then expert should not be launched. first 100 bars are flagged with 0. and close states of each bar in the "Open prices" model flagged with 0 too
 
So if flag is 0, expert isn't launched. What about the meaning of the other values? (i.e. 1, 2, 3)
 
Slawa, can you please answer that?
 
other than 0 values (1,2,3) mean expert launched
there are internal values for information only:
1 - open and close state of bar
2 - control point
3 - one of every tick
 
which fxt files are you talking about, and how do you view/edit them?
 
which fxt files do you mean, and how do we view/edit them?
 
ah ok - "importing tick data to history center"

but how do we edit these fxt files?

bubo,
fxt files are in binary format. If you want to read/edit them, you need to write a program to do that.

slawa,
If I am creating fxt files from tick data, should I use the value of 3 for the flags field?

Any editor which allows to edit raw hex data. I use either msvc or visual slickedit in windows to correct spread value. Some brokers set it to 0. :(
