I have been following all the steps but nothing seems to work. I always get the same message.

"Cannot find JForex files in input directory!"

Re: JForex import not finding files

It is because of the changed format of the file name. These guys have fun changing the exported file names, which of course makes the import unpredictable.

FSB Pro currently reads files with the time zone between the symbol and the period. You can rename the file as follows, and FSB Pro will accept it.

From: AUDUSD_4 Hours_Bid_2003.08.03_2019.04.13.csv
To:   AUDUSD_UTC_4 Hours_Bid_2003.08.03_2019.04.13.csv

You can try TickStory light. It also reads data from DukasCopy and has FSB export format.
