Good idea and script. To expedite the process, you can use the YURAZ_CreateCSV_HistoryFile_From_MT5_For_MT4 script to produce only the M1 TimeFrame file. F-Y-I: Running the script today (2010.12.17) with Max bars in chart in MT-5 set to 900000 produced an M1 file from 2008.06.09 to 2010.12.17. Import this M1 file into MT-4 History Center and then use the period_converter_auto script to produce the remaining M5, M15, M30, H1, H4, Day, Week & Month TimeFrame files.
For a Great idea and script would be to modify YURAZ_CreateCSV_HistoryFile_From_MT5_For_MT4 script to auto produce all TimeFrame files.Useful stuff.

Thank you for the script and I suggest the above also
Please help me with advice, I used the script once, everything went well, I wanted to patch fresh holes, I deleted all the files from MQL5/files reinstalled MT5, I run the script, the comment appears instantly: OK. Ready...
The files do not appear, nothing is displayed in the log,
in the log: loaded successfully and at the same second removed
There was a need for a complete history of all tf mcl4, implemented csv creation for all tf mcl4 and instruments in Market Watch.
May be useful for someone.(Go)
Thanks for your hard work.
I reinstalled the system, downloaded a new mt5 terminal and I can't convert quotes. Took down the new terminal, installed the old one from the archive, everything works until the first reload of the terminal. As soon as you reload the terminal, the script writes that it works and that's all.

YURAZ_CreateCSV_HistoryFile_From_MT5_For_MT4:
When I used the history quotes data from MetaTrader4 client terminal, I 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.Author: Yuriy Zaytsev
