Dummy forex tick feed wanted

Hi,

I used Dynamite Sentimentor to develop trading systems for futures.
A nice feature the program had was a (semi-random) feed generated by the application.
This was nice for a first 'smoke test' of a newly build trading system.

Does Metatrader have such a feature,
or is there another way to replay external feeds fi from a mysql database?

As i know there is no feature to random data feed...
But what i would do...
Is to create a txt/csv file(MT4 Format) with random data,and import the data into the MetaTrader via the history center.
I would use a second MT4 application to do this to not mix Real and Testing data...

I think its possible. Did not try, but in theory it possible.

Well it would have been cool to have.
I understand from another thread that to do this you'd need a metatrader server.

I would be a nice add-on for a broker to offer such a service

Anyway i'll give txt/csv file a try
