Hi. I want to test my trading strategy using the H8 candles from the FXCM Tradestation II. I did convert the file to *.csv and *.txt, but I can not import the data.

I did searched the forum and help files, but cant find an answer.

Is it possible to do it this way?

I am downloading the EURUSD History data and will see if that could solve my problem.

Any advise would be appreciated.

EDIT: Yes you can create a 8H candle by clicking the watch next to "Timeframe".

No luck yet with importing data from FXCM

You can download FXCM data from our server, this feature added in Forex Tester 2.6 (see it in action here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bATwVSAKpAA).
Data is provided in good quality and it is not expensive ($20 per month to get access to all M1 data in our database or $30 per month to get access to all tick-by-tick data in our database)
