just paste on the IE address bar if you cannot download from this link make sure
1. you'r firewall is turnedoff ( though it should not create any problems)
2. If having WINDOWSXP Service pack2 ( you might see a small pop up on top of the page asking you the download is restricted just click ok to download) This is what i could come up with some reasons in case the directlink fails.
3. you can also insert the on your favourite downloader such as download accelerator or get a free download manager from here http://www.freedownloadmanager.org/ install put the link.

hope this helps

the problem is not that the data doesn't download, it downloads fine, it even unzips fine. But that the end of it. It doesn't import into the metatrader history center. That's where I'm having trouble. I even went so far as to install the metatrader data center but I don't know how to use it, it's asking for a login and password, no idea where to get those or apply for them..it wants and internal and external address too...no clue what all that is...can anyone shed some light on this?

and/or


getting back to the history center of the metatrader import function, it asks for these user defined parameters; separator, skip columns, rows, shift, use selected only and volume. volume is checked by default, the separator is a comma by default the rest are blank or zero. the file to import is M1_EURUSD.hst when i click 'ok' nothing happens. no import occurs. what gives?
