My sincere apologies.
I thought when i downloaded data from the history centre into my charts it came from mt4.
If this is not true I will contact my broker and ask why my data on the chart is missing as it has come from them, and not mt4

Hi peperibal:
It is not a fully related to your questions but it is about what I am doing when I want to backtest/check/trade using some pair for example:
1. I open MT4.
2. Open USDJPY H1 chart (if I want to do something with this pair).
3. Go to Tools - History Center, find this pair and double mouse click on every pair's timeframe so
before double-mouse click on every timeframe there:
after:
So, by this action - I downloaded the history for this pair to MT4.
4. Now I want to transfer this history to the chart (to trade, for backtesting, and so on).
So, I change timeframe for USDJPY chart to M1, right mouse click on any space of the chart and choose 'Refresh', and all history is loaded to the chart - and I can see it from the Journal about how many bars were loaded from my MT4 History Center to this chart:
Same with M5 timeframe (Refresh), same with M15 and so on up to MN.
----
After that only I will backtesting/trading or whatsoever anything with this pair (USDJPY in our example).
Just my experience
same problem here and doing what is said above doesn't solve the problem, it just re-download everything but data since 10/20/2018 are still missing.
