You can't.

YOU WISH!! (and me too) I'm still mad my MT4i "Spread Controller" doesn't work anymore. So I guess accurate weekend backtesting is out of the question now.. (since weekend spreads can be 3X to 10X higher than normal) GRRRRR!!!! @QuantHFTer Even if you find a prev ver. It might just update to the newest version. Try downloading a new broker demo and rename the liveupdate.exe to liveupdate.xex before you run it the first time. Most brokers havent updated their downloads yet and simply let the system handle it. This was a FORCED update so it might auto-update anyway tho since v500 killed the separate liveupdate.exe function.

You can't . . . I already said.

The Installer is no longer the full install package, the Installer just downloads the current install package . . . which is Build 500.

Just disconnect from your Broker before the weekend starts.

Read this thread to discover some ways to downgrade your platform to build 451 or build 482, and how to keep it there. Note that not all brokers allow build 451 to still connect to their servers.

Yea, I know THATS why I use Spread Controllers. I'm not always at my terminal when the day ends plus if I have demo's running I dont like to stop them before EOD. Thanks Metaquotes!! (since I can't even backtest with a custom spread but you spend programming resources on killing services that provide features your software lacks)

OK, disconnect from your Broker and use something like SpreadGenerator_v1.1.mq4 to set the spread.
