YURAZ_CreateCSV_HistoryFile_From_MT5_For_MT4 – script MetaTrader 5

When I used the history quotes data from MetaTrader4 client terminal, I have found that some brokers doesn’t have the full history.

The quality of the historical bar data is better, so I have decided to export the historical quotes from MetaTrader 5 and import them in MetaTrader 4.

This script will help you to get the full history for MetaTrader 4.

The script creates .CSV file with historical bar data.

The steps:

• 1 – Install MetaTrader 5 client terminal
• 2 – Enter the Main Menu->Tools->Options->Max bars in chart, and set MaxBars in chart depending on the historical bars needed:

• 3 – Load this script and place it to MQL5\Scripts folder
  in WINDOWS7/VISTA copy it to the Roaming folder instead of Program Files folder:
  for example c:\Users\<administrator\AppData\Roaming\MetaQuotes\Terminal\D0E8209F77C8CF37AD8BF550E51FF075\MQL5\Scripts\
  </administrator
• 4 – Compile the script and attach it to the charts for each MetaTrader 4 timeframes: M1 M5 M15 M30 H1 H4 D1 W1
  

• 5 – Close MetaTrader 5;
  
• 6 – Open MetaTrader 4;
• 7 – Press F2;
• 8 – Choose currency pair;
  
• 9 – Select timeframe;

Let’s consider how to dow it for M15 timeframe.

• 10 – Select the file, created for M15 timeframe;
• 11 – Press the “Import” button:

• 12 – Repeat the step №10 for each pair. Repeat Step №11 for each timeframe of the pair:

LET’S CHECK IT!
