Regarding the 'Could not find file xxx' errors, was MT4 running at the time of the import?  I am not sure how the files are found during the directory scan but not available during the import.

I've got a couple of minor bug fixes I am working on at the moment and will add this to my next submission to popov.

Import USDJPY1 ...  (1424198 bars) *
Import USDJPY5 ...  (347889 bars) *
Import USDJPY15 ...  (116108 bars) *
Import USDJPY30 ...  (58067 bars) *
Import USDJPY60 ...  (29039 bars) *
Import USDJPY240 ...  (7768 bars) *
Import USDJPY1440 ...  (1298 bars) *
Import USDJPY10080 ...  (249 bars) *
Import USDJPY43200 ...  (43 bars) *

But there are other (untidy) errors so that even the format ("\n") is wrong eg

Import DEM301 ... Error (Could not find file 'C:\Program Files\MetaTrader\history\AlpariUK-Classic-1\DEM301.hst'.)Import DEM3060 ... Error (Could not find file 'C:\Program Files\MetaTrader\history\AlpariUK-Classic-1\DEM3060.hst'.)Import EURAUD1 ...  (1598112 bars) *

and

Sure, as much as you need or want.

In what altered universe is that image not re-sized? sad
The post image function is giving me grief but the file attachment seems better smile

I wonder if the problem is a hole or holes in the data set (non-contiguous bars)?

EURJPY1.hst is 62,352KB and that is a small one! My biggest one is EURUSD1.hst at 184,415KB. I don't think they will email nicely smile

I would think the easiest way is to just download the history data from MetaQuotes like I did.

Would you be able to make a demonstration file available please?  The MT4 data import was my submission but I have not been able to fault it with any of my data files.  I will PM you my email address, but if you have no way of getting these files to me (due to size), please let me know and I will provide a secure location for upload.

The image isn't very readable sad

It says

Import EURJPY1 ... Error [Exception of type 'SystemOutOfMemoryException' was thrown.]

Seems to happen on lots of the M1 timeframes where the data lengths are pretty long.
