A big hole in history data...

Yep, get a better Broker or just get better data . .

Thing is the data was downloaded from MQ - I went to the history center. Even now it says that there are no new bars to download.

Yeah, MQ history is very crappy.

Google for "mql4.com"+hole in history data. It'll give you all the information you need.

Thanx, I did the refresh trick and worked.

I have been trying to save the "tick-data" myself using:

#include <stdlib.mqh>
int handle;
//+------------------------------------------------------------------+
//| expert initialization function                                   |
//+------------------------------------------------------------------+
int init()
  {
   
   handle=FileOpen("data.bin", FILE_BIN|FILE_WRITE|FILE_READ);
    if(handle<1)
      Comment("File could not be opened");
     

   return(0);
  }
//+------------------------------------------------------------------+
//| expert deinitialization function                                 |
//+------------------------------------------------------------------+
int deinit()
  {
//----
   FileClose(handle);
//----
   return(0);
  }
//+------------------------------------------------------------------+
//| expert start function                                            |
//+------------------------------------------------------------------+
int start()
  {
//----
  
   FileWriteDouble(handle,TimeCurrent(),LONG_VALUE);
   FileWriteDouble(handle,TimeLocal(),LONG_VALUE);
   FileWriteDouble(handle,MarketInfo("EURUSD",MODE_ASK),DOUBLE_VALUE);
   return(0);
  }
//+----------

but the time stamps dont make sense for some reason. I want to save the tick-data per week.
