[kvm]

Setting up MetaTrader 4

1. Download and install MetaTrader 4 Client Terminal (use default installation directory) from:
http://files.metaquotes.net/metaquotes.software.corp/mt4/mt4setup.exe

2. You must connect to at least a demo account. To create one, go to menu and select File -> Open an Account.

3. Go to menu and select Tools -> Options -> Charts tab. In the fields "Max bars in history" and "Max bars in chart", enter the largest number allowed: 9999999999999. After you click OK, the system will change this number to 2147483647 - the maximum bars the system can handle.


Using the Autoupdating Expert Status: OK

This is an Expert Advisor (EA) that automatically imports historical tick data from http://nextcoin.pw/allhistory.csv into local terminal database. Periodically, it updates the data and refreshes the chart window using  http://dgex.com/API/trades3h.json ticker.

1. Download and put eKVM-NXT-Chart_v1.1 expert in this directory, by default:
C:\Program Files\MetaTrader 4\experts - if you use Windows 7 32-bit system.
- or -
C:\Program Files (x86)\MetaTrader 4\experts - if you use Windows 7 64-bit system.

2. After that restart the MetaTrader 4 terminal. Make sure that the terminal is connected and in service.

3. Open a new Chart Window for any forex pair you want (for example, EURUSD) and keep it running all the time!

4. Go to Expert Advisors in Navigator window and double click on "eKVM-NXT-Chart". Under Common tab in settings dialog, make sure to check "Allow DLL imports" and "Allow imports of external experts", and uncheck "Confirm DLL function calls". Then click OK.

5. After the EA has processed some data, go to File -> Open Offline, choose one of the timeframes - "dgexNXTmBTC,M1", "dgexNXTmBTC,M5" etc. and click Open. Now you can add your indicators or template to customize the chart as you want.

Yes, It will be very useful, I think! Let's do it

The Bitcoin version of the script works with Bitcoincharts API: http://bitcoincharts.com/about/markets-api/

So, I've the code in place to parse csv data. Are you ok with that?

[Zeegeuze]

That's great, thanks for that! I'll wait until all is integrated, or will it update automatically?

Yes, I only need timestamp, price and volume!

Wow! You are fast! It's perfect except one thing

Can you change the price format to be fixed-point instead of exponential (scientific) notation, for example:

9.93e-05 -> 0.0000993. Because MT4 function StrToDouble() doesn't work with exponents!
