Hello

I am in need of Older Metatrader (MT4 Setup.exe) Setup files of common MT4 Forex Brokers, for the backtesting purpose, etc. (Lately MT4 brokers have changed to Web based installation/update and do not host old setup files anyway)

Anyone having any build from 225 to 409 of Version4, kindly share the same here.
You can check which MT4 version & build you have by opening MT4 > Clicking "Help" menu > Clicking "About" > Version is on left bottom

I am in specific need of following broker MT4 setup files:
1) Fxpro version 4 Build 405 & 409
2) Alpari UK version 4 Build 405 & 409
3) CollectiveFx version 4 Build 405 & 409

I am sure many download the same when installing afresh and many keep lying in your download folder. Kindly share.
Further we can build a database of sorts here of all Mt4 brokers you got and that may be helpful to others also.
Thanks

As the file size may be big, you can zip/rar it & use free file hosts like
www.sendspace.com
www.box.net
www.mediafire.com etc
One more thing, if one doesn't have setup file/s, just copy & attach the terminal.exe from your broker installation folder. (if its of required build)
Everyone in sane mind knows doing that has nothing to do with sharing your personal information, trade data or indi's/ea or anything of that sort (Just FYI)

Hi forexsaint,


From 1 June 2012, MetaQuotes, the provider of the MetaTrader 4 platform, will cease providing support for MT4 terminals earlier than build 416.

According to MetaQuotes, client terminals below build 416 will not be able to connect to trade servers which means that updates and trading will be disabled.


How do I know if I need to upgrade?

If you're not sure whether you need to upgrade or not, it's easy to find out which version you are using:
• Go to the "Help" menu in the MT4 toolbar
• Select "About"
• The build number is noted in the left hand side of the "About" window
• If you see a build number lower than 416, you will need to upgrade

Upgrading is simple

If you do need to upgrade, you can quickly download the latest version of Metatrader 4.

I didn't ask for that canned message or irrelevant crap.
Write that shit somewhere else....along with your other sinister methods to loot retail traders off their money including Virtual deal plugin, etc.


NOW, do not reply that "ALPARI UK" is piously clean & can't even dream of such methods or plugins ...
BCOZ in that case i would remodel to a "Forex-AlpariUKPantsRemover" from a "Forex-Saint"

Ignore list addition + Post Reporting pending !

I don't know if you've tried this but fxpro names their files fxpro4setup.exe so should make it easy to find on one of these sites.

I tried the same with Collective but got no results.

Come on guys..
so poor no. of responses of something you regularly use (in fact better possibility of finding its old setup if don't use regularly) ?


One more thing, if one doesn't have setup file/s, just copy & attach the terminal.exe from your broker installation folder. (if its of required build)
Everyone in sane mind knows doing that has nothing to do with sharing your personal information, trade data or indi's/ea or anything of that sort (Just FYI)

Well
i have just updated the Alpari Links (which were the only dead links) as i have got some Emails/Pm's about link issue.
If you people are still facing issues, check your internet or change browser

Its nice to know that the first link itself has been downloaded some 100 times (though of course most don't reply).
Hope that helps others.

The old version MT4 is unable to connect to trade server, so it is unable to perform the Birt’s patch script. If i am using the new version, it is not support Birt’s patch script.
The only option is to use Tick Data Suite, which has 7 trial period, and this software cost USD 388.

I have tried TickStory software, it is free. However, it is limited because it couldn't backtest with hst file size >2GB. The backtesting operation would stop the process.

Is there any way to have the tick data backtesting without costly software?

Thanks.

You don´t need no connection to run Birt´s patch. Only thing you need is an open chart.

Need connection to run the script, as below picture show the progress of converting in %. If not how can a MT4 convert CSV file to hst file?
Thanks

CSV2FXT needs connection. Before you run the test you need to run birt´s patch (remove the GB limit and for not overwtiting the history) what needs no connection.

Convert data with a connected MT4 and run the backtest on the old MT4 without connection.
