Here is a script I have been using for quite some time. http://codebase.mql4.com/6693 I had a problem with it when Empty4 went to build 401. But ever since then it has worked fine. Maybe it will help some one.... ? It does take a while to get all the data but it works... SatchFan |

Yup. I just like chart feedback - you may have noticed this. |

I found that the following EA works very well. Just input one of: M1, M5, M15,H1,H4,D1,W1,MN into the period input and away you go. Don't bother about the FastMethod and Pause (they go together), but all it does is allocates the amount of time to spend in seconds to download data for each Symbol. If the EA gets interrupted for some reason and you find that it gets 'stuck', remove it and before you start it up again, just delete the GV's (press F3) associated to the EA. |

Michael, does that one get ALL the history from the crim? The LoadHistory script that SatchFan posted works very well, and it gets ALL TFs with one run which is nice, but it gives up too easily. It stops before it gets all of the history. |

Yes it does. Only that it does all symbols per Period only, not all Periods and all Symbols. In saying that, it won't be too hard to add an extern variable and extra loop coding for each period to have the option of downloading ALL History from ALL Periods of ALL Symbols |

Any reason why I cant get more than around 540 000 bars on M1 whatever the amount of data I have in my hst file? I have the max bars option to the max so I dont see why it would be limited |

hi tonycashflow, Maybe your criminal does not have more history data available... Have you set both maxbars (history and chart) to the max? happy trading, NeoTrader - |
