Here what I've found that works:

If you look at the file names of the files you've downloaded, you'll see they're not the same as the usual MT history files (the data that we can see on the chart). The downloaded files from alpari start with D1 or M1 while the regular start with EUR for example.

You should rename the ALPARI files, so they are the same format as the regural history files.

Write if you have problems implementing this.
