Hi Folks,
I am at my wits end!
I am trying to export to MT4 (FXT & HST) and it ain’t happening.
Can someone please tell me exactly what to do (mini-step by simple mini-step), so that when I try strategy testing say … EURAUD M15 I get 99% quality results?
Please, please, please,
Gordon

Sorted.
I deleted all the existing Data for the specific currency pair in MT4.
I exported the Quant Data to MT4
I still had trouble as I was getting an Error 131.
It turned out the account was a Mini account and not a micro account. I was trying to strategy test with 0.001 lots.
All good now.
Thanks for all your help

Hi Everyone, I need help.
I am trying to export tickdata to my MT4 installation on second drive, NOT C drive. The system does not seem to support this because whenever I provide the address to the MT4 installation on the E drive, SQ does not support it. May be I am not providing the addresses correctly.
I would be grateful for any assistance.

Hi Tomas
Thanks very much! When the 2 addresses are same it connects. I have managed to export tickdata and tested the hst file. Report – see screenshot. = Modelling Quality n/a ( as hinted in tutorial – may not be significant).
This is how I did it.
Tools > History > EURUSD > 1 minute > Import > H:\Global…..\eurusd1.hst.
This is the only file I saw with the correct date stamp and data range.
Is this the correct way to do it?
I will clone time zones to remove any sources of error and re-run.
