Quoting SquareRoot
{quote} I've written a Windows program that creates HST files from CSV files. Based on the file format I found at https://www.mql5.com/en/forum/149178. When I open offline the newly created HST file NT4 says its WAITING for update. I have compared my HST file to an HST file created by your script and I do not see an obvious difference (other than your script uses 44 bytes instead of 60 for the Rate record). Do you have any idea why I am getting this message? If I can get this program working then I would like to make it available to users...
Hi,
I don't really know, I'd just try to restart MT4 afterwards and/or copying the HST file into the correct folder inside of MT4.

I think I have finally solved the problem with my Windows program. The program will take any CSV from any data source and create an HST file for MetaTrader4. I still need to work on the user interface. It's not as convenient to use as the script. You'll need to download a CSV file from a data source, Pull the CSV into the program, specify columns ... at which point the program generates the HST.

Anyone reading this thread is welcome to a copy when it's ready. Just send me a message with your email. It may take a few weeks before its ready.

@SquareRoot
I sent you a message. Yahoo has really screwed over a lot of people with that move. Thanks for creating that windows program.
