Data on Crown Forex

Hi,

I have a demo a/c with Crown Forex. I noticed that some of the data, e.g. EURJPY and EURUSD, is lacking. I also have an demo a/c with SBFX. Their data is more complete than Crown Forex.

Is there a setting which I have missed out?

Cheers,
Jeff

Press Ctrl+M to open the Market Watch window. With the mouse in the Market Watch window right click the mouse. From the drop down menu that opens select 'Show All'. That will let you see all the symbols available on your MT4 platform. FF does have tutorials available.

By lacking do you mean there's holes in their data (I've seen that) or are you unable to access data going back x days? If the latter, simply press the left arrow while in a chart to access data going back in time. (Tip: Zoom way out to make data accumulation go much faster.)

First of all, i apologise to the admin guys for posting in the wrong place. Thanks, nvwine and billworld for responding.

I don't mean the symbols...anyway, i realized that Crown only provide data from May 06. The real mess is actually EURUSD, which only reflects from May 07. Someone must have made a boo-boo there

Cheers,
Jeff

I think I understand what you want now. What billworld suggested should work. You may want to turn auto-scroll off. Keep pressing the left arrow and see if it will download more data. The Page-Up button on your computer will also more backward. What time frame are you using that only goes back to the first week of May?

Yes, it only data from may 06.

Thank you, guys for your help....cheers

Well I missed the point 2 times so far. Having data back to May of 2006 is not bad depending on the time frame. I don't think that most platforms will pull down data older than that just going back on the chart for the 15min and under charts. If you tried the previous ideas and they have helped all they can go to Tools/Options/Charts and increase the number of bars available for charts and history and try the previous options again. If you still want more data press F2. It should take you to the history center. Select the currency pair you want and select the 1 minute data for that pair hit the download button at the bottom of the page. It should convert the other time frames automatically. I don't think the downloaded data is as good as what the chart pulls down on it's own. You may also see things slow down when you get a lot of bars in history and charts on several pairs. You can also import data from a source like Alpari. It may not match the server time on your platform without playing with it.
