Issue with data downloaded from Historical Center

 

Hello Everyone,

I find a weird problem with data in MT4.

I go to the history center (F2) to download data on D1 of GBPUSD.

By chance I find that on the day 2013.05.22, there is big difference between downloaded data and data on chart:

On Chart: Low:1.50192    Close: 1.50461

CSV file:   Low: 1.51472   Close: 1.51574

The Open and High are the same.

 

I download the data  near the open of 2013.05.23, Is this the cause for that issue?

Also I want to know how reliable the Close, open, High, Low data downloaded from Historical center.

I wonder if you have ever counter this problem and if there is any better source to get the historical data in csv format.

Thank you for your help.

D1 data is always wrong  . . .  it's all about perception.  When does the correct day start ?  why is it the correct day ?  is it GMT, EST, CET, MDT, PST, BST  ?

Perhaps your 2 data are from days that start and end in different timezones . . .
