Is it possible to edit broker's history (.hst) files?
Farzad Sadeghishahrestanak:Hello. I try to open broker's .hst files from history/brokerfolder with FileOpenHistory() or FileOpen() functions to see and edit OHLC data, but I can not find any number like open price or any order of candle's data. Can we read inside .hst files? simple example:
