Import tick data to MT4 for Strategy Tester

 

Hi there,

I'd like to import tick data from https://pepperstone.com/mt4-forex-trading/mt4-tick-chart-history-data.php which is in the below format.

EUR/USD,20090501 00:00:00.365,1.32436,1.32451
EUR/USD,20090501 00:00:00.371,1.32437,1.32452
EUR/USD,20090501 00:00:00.605,1.32439,1.32454

MT4 exports as below.

2014.10.21,17:00,1.27399,1.27399,1.27274,1.27307,121
2014.10.21,17:01,1.27313,1.27342,1.27285,1.27324,108
2014.10.21,17:02,1.27324,1.27324,1.27267,1.27270,101

The format from MT4 uses 1 min bars with OHLC and Peppers tone is providing bid and ask price for each tick.

I should be able to code a script to format this once I know what the outcome should be.

Did a search for "import tick data into mt4" and came across this article which looked like exactly what I was looking for: https://forum.mql4.com/60102.

Lol, oh well.  After looking through 7 pages of articles my unseasoned research skills didn't locate anything of value.

Could you please advise / refer me to a relevant article?

Best regards.
