Dear all export friends

I love metatrader very much. I think the interface of MT4 is much better than other trading software, like metastock. Other than Bullion and Forex, I like trading Hong Kong stocks as well. However, unlike US stocks there is no broker providing Hong Kong stocks trading with MT4. I would like to ask is there any tools or method to import the end of day stock data form yahoo.com to MT4? (And update automatically if it is possible)

I am a new user in script. Please give more details discription if the tool is a kind of script.

It's my wish to see HK stock in MT4 as I the interface of MT so much. All export friends in forum, Please help me?

Thank you very much.

Best Regard

Victor

I'm trying to do the same as the guy in the first post.

I have saved the prices in yahoo as CSV and then gone to the History Center and clicked import, selected the excel file and nothing comes up. What do you need to do to the file so that the charts show up in metatrader?

This is a general question to all using MT4 for their trading. While its easy to get MT4 with real time forex data i cant find a server offering real and end of day data for stock indices either US or maybe world stock indices. Does someone know how to get these data working for MT4. There has been a remark that WHC is offering stock index data but after downloading their demo i could only use it with forex but no indices available.

Any good suggestions on how to feed stock indices (real & EOD) in MT4 ?

Thanks in advance

Hi

On WHC to get the stock indices, you need to go to 'view' and open market watch. where it says Symbol / Bid / Ask, move the arrow there and right click - a menu should come up and select 'show all' - now when you open a new chart it should show the indices.

Anyone??????

Please try to export first from MT4 then look the csv data format ...then you must have the same format to import into MT4...

options for data import :


Separator — data separator in the file to be imported. Comma, semicolon, space or tabulation character can be used as separators;

Skip columns — skip columns when importing. This can be helpful when the imported file contains more data types than necessary;

Skip lines — skip rows (lines) when importing;

Time shift — shift data by several hours in time;

Selected only — import only selected data. Data are selected by lines using "Ctrl" and "Shift";

Volumes — enable/disable importing of volumes

hope this help
