Looking for reliable data in 1 hr and 1 minute charts as far back as possible. I'd like to import into MT4 and/or Excel. I'm willing to pay a fee for this data as long as it is accurate. Anyone know where I can find it?

Quoting ZachDislikedThanks for the info. I have already downloaded this data and imported it into MT4. The data isn't very good however. There are many periods of time where a one hour candle doesn't come close to the corressponding one minute candle. Many times the 1 minute data is one or two hours off from the corresponding 1 hour data.
Appreciate your response. If you know of any alternatives, I would appreciate it. Even text data into Excel would help me quite a bit.Ignored
Quoting ZachDislikedThanks. I'll try that. It appears, however, that the 1H data is accurate and the 1M is a few hours off.
I can see where to delete the data from MT4 but I can't find the period converter.
Can't believe it is so hard to find reliable data (1M) back 1 year. At this point I'd be happy to pay for it. I trade off 1 hr charts with a tight stop. To get a reliable backtest, I need the 1M.
Thanks again,

Quoting ZachDislikedThanks again. I went through the steps and I think I have everything loaded. One problem. The offline EUR/USD chart will only access 1 minute data. It won't change to 1hr. as the period tabs are greyed out. To test my system properly, I need to switch back and forth between 1hr and 1min charts. Anything I can do about this?
I think I'm almost there. Thanks for your patience.

Quoting ZachDislikedSince the alpari data bank have only 1 day and 1 minute data, I assume I'll need to use the normal EUR/USD chart for the 1 hr data and the offline EUR/USD chart for the 1 minute. These two charts will match up?Ignored
