Thanks a lot RAMDAS for this utility.:clap::clap:
This is one of the best tools for EOD analysis with reliable data from Google Finance.
Your knowledge on MT4 is incredible.
The ultimate goal would be to have real time data from NOW to MT4
Looks like you are already on it.All the best.
Let me know if I can contribute in any way.
Couple of Questions.
1) Why is the step Step17 delete file symbols.sel and rename file symbol_1.sel
is manual.
Why it cannot be done from inside the MT4 script.
Is the file locked by Metatrader ?
Is it one time ? Every time I have to do it?
2)When I run update from second time will it be incremental update or will it download from scratch?
Looks like it is doing from scratch.
3) There is a file called Market Watch V201.ex4. I did not use this file any where. What is the use of this?
Is this a EA or Indicator or Script?
I suggest you or the Admins to change the Thread title to
"Metatrader4 with EOD Data from Google Finance".
Answer to your questions .
1) when MT4 closed it saves last status of symbol.sel, so if we do changes in symbol.sel file..mt4 again overwrite that, so we need to change it manualy after MT4 get close. you can create simple xxx.bat file to do rename with one click
2) when you run update chart ,it is updated from last update and not from scrach.
3) when you run script Market Watch V201.ex4 shows you % change , Last close, day High/Low, and script colour and arrow also chhanges depend on positive close or negative close.
when you run Market Watch V201.ex4 script..after that you have to rename symbol_1,sel as symbo.sel
we can use other sources also for creating chart on MT4 not only google.
We can create EOD chart on MT4 from NSE bhavcopy, i tryed and worked.
i used Hakija downloader and downloaded all bhavopy from 2009 till yesterday in txt format and imported all to MT4 to create EOD chart of some 1500 stocks.
and just updating daily bhavocopy and update all chart. EOD chart is good for stock analysis and stock scan also.
