MT 4 customised time frame charts - missing data

Can anyone help with how to download the missing data on MT 4 customised time period charts.

 

I have created 6 hour and 12 hour charts for a selection of pairs on the IG MT 4 trading platform based on the 1 minute chart but only a few candles have appeared. It seems to be only using the last few days data. Is there a way of getting the missing data for say the last year or so?

 

I would appreciate any help on this matter.

 

Many thanks

Hi ,  to create a chart, open the chart in the time frame directly below the one you want to make, so to make a 6 hr chart open a 4 hr, then open the bar changer app from the 4 hr chart..

In the diag box the Timeframe for the new 6 hr offline chart is 6 x 60 min so enter 360 and then the 'Shift bar time' from 4hr to 6 hr is plus 120 (min). Click ok.

The new chart should then be in the offline chart list to open.

Remember you need to keep the 4 hour chart open to provide the data feed for the 6 hr chart.

Many thanks for this info, but I am unable to find the -IG Bar Changer -  app. The changer I am using at the moment only works on the 1 Min chart, hence I need to be able to download historical data set with the (£) ie. GBP USD(£). I can find the standard sets ie. GBP USD but they do not seem to be recognised in the IG version of MT 4 which seems to use the (£) suffix to each pair. Any further help you could give would be appreciated.

,  you can find the download for the IG MT4  apps at link below (all 18 in 1 download) and the bar changer is amongst them.

From your download folder just open the the MT4 apps file while MT4 is running and will auto-load, will probably need to close and re-open MT4.

Some will be placed in the 'indicators' list, others are placed in the 'expert advisers' list.

    • Hi buddy, from my experience m, you sounded like you're setting a life goal for yourself in the crypto trading journey while some only treat it as a side gain where they only trade to make some profits, but seeing your eagerness, I'll say you should take it slow and do some due research.  You can try copy trading, it seems people make a lot from it following experts' trades. Please ensure you do your research and don't just take words from people you meet online. Be consistent with your savings of profits and see how you'll grow.

Wave Cancel invalid level:96.081   The AUD/JPY Elliott Wave Analysis on 27 September 23, examines the Day Chart of the Australian Dollar/Japanese Yen (AUD/JPY) currency pair. This analysis utilizes Elliott Wave theory to provide insights into potential market trends and price movements.   The analysis identifies its Function as "Counter Trend," indicating a focus on identifying and interpreting market movements that run contrary to the prevailing trend. In this context, "counter trend" suggests an emphasis on potential reversals or corrective movements within the market.   The Mode is characterized as "impulsive," which implies an anticipation of strong and directional price movement. Specifically, the analysis expects an impulsive wave sequence within the market, suggesting the potential for significant and decisive price shifts.   The Market Structure is described as "blue wave 3 of C." This highlights the importance of the third wave within a broader C-wave structure in the Elliott Wave sequence. It signifies that the analysis is centered on the development of this specific wave.   The Position specifies that the analysis pertains to "black wave C," indicating that the entire C-wave structure is of interest in the analysis. This means that the broader context of the C-wave is taken into consideration.   The Direction Next Lower Degrees points to "wave (3 of C) continue," signifying that the analysis is focused on the continuation of the third sub-wave within the larger C-wave structure.   In the Details section, it is observed that "blue corrective wave 2" is deemed to have completed its course at the level of 96.083. The market is now in the phase of "blue wave 3," and a strong price movement is expected as part of this impulsive phase. The "Wave Cancel invalid level" is specified as 96.081, serving as a reference point for risk management and potential trade entry points.   In summary, the AUD/JPY Elliott Wave Analysis on 27 September 23, suggests that the market is currently undergoing a counter-trend phase with an anticipated impulsive price movement in the form of "blue wave 3 of C." Traders are advised to closely monitor this wave for potential trading opportunities, with the specified invalid level serving as a reference for risk management within their trading strategies.
