Take care also about the fact that Alpari changed last month the gmt offset from 2 to 3. Also, this is very important for the strategies which are using indicators with time entries and so on... For me for example this is a big problem because I cannot combine the history before April with the history after April in order to optimize my strategies with such time entry indicators. From now on I have to split the time and to make 2 times optimize.

MT4 have gone through quite a few updates recently. It wouldn't surprise me that the problem lies here.

Noticed above the bullet "Update data files from Alpari and FXCM. FYI, I just discovered today problem exporting data files from both FXCM and Alpari MT4 History Centers. no matter what time frame above M1 I select to export, it saves for a few seconds what appears to be about the right value, then it increases the amount saved to that for M1. Haven't been able to stop at what appears to be the right value despite literally hours of trying. And when I try to open an FSB strategy from that corrupted data folder on a time frame higher than M1, FSB says there is no data for that time frame in the folder. Weird. I realize it's not your FSB-FST problem, since the same thing happens on both MT4 platforms, evidently it's a Meta-quotes problem that I never had before today.

I prefer that FST not be geared to news or away from news, unless there are user set options to include or exclude these periods.

Popov I have one more idea about FST. i think it could be very good, if FST can avoid the "red" news according to each pair. This is a start idea, we can develop it if you consider that this is valid for our project. What do you think?
