Hi,
I tried to import 1minute data from a csv file which I downloaded from Dukascopy's History data webpage.
I changed the date and time format via SQL Server to ensure that FT3 can recognise it.
But for one or other reason it only import the first 2 rows and then hangs.
I assume it is a data format issue? Any help will be appreciated.
I attach images of the screenshot I took as well as a sample file of the csv data
Regards,

Re: Problem importing Dukascopy csv 1Minute data to FT3
Hi guys,
I hope nobody has spend too much time trying to solve the problem that I described above, because I found the solution. The main problem being that it takes really very very long for the import to complete. For 1M data for Jan 2016 to Aug 2017 on one pair/symbol took more than 25 minutes to complete. I thought the import function has frozen but apparently it just takes a long time. What made the process look even more dodgy was the progress bar in FT3 which show these weird % complete.....like 225164859% and the progress bar show 100% all the time. But at least now I know patience during the import process is what is required.
At least now I know how to import 1M data from Dukascopy into FT3 by 1st formatting it in SQL.
Regards
