Hi it would be great when you can fix it short. So I download from my broker the MT5 history from EURUSD in a csv file. Most MT5 download files have a first row in the file like this but the problem accours when it have more as 7 rows like 9 below:
<DATE> <TIME> <OPEN> <HIGH> <LOW> <CLOSE> <TICKVOL> <VOL> <SPREAD>
2016.11.29 00:00:00 1.06123 1.06130 1.06095 1.06102 83 0 11
2016.11.29 00:01:00 1.06103 1.06124 1.06103 1.06123 137 0 8
2016.11.29 00:02:00 1.06126 1.06127 1.06117 1.06123 96 0 5
In SQ3 I can import this data very easy, but in SQ4B7 I get the error message. Here are the steps: DATA MANAGER->Select EURUSD and Import button->Select the CSV ifle-> Error Message: Cannot get file overview. IllegalArgumentException : Illegal pattern character 'o'.
Tip: In SQ3 I can say import 9 colums which is not possible in SQ4B7. I have no predifed MT5 file format...only NT pred. file format has 7 columns but not 9. So can you create a predefined file format for MT5?
Nope, it didn't help because one column is to much:
Error parsing on row: 1, line contents: 2016.11.29 00:00:00 1.06123 1.06130 1.06095 1.06102 83 0 11, message: The number of columns in data file doesn't match!(CSV columns: 1, ImportDataInfo columns: 7
What exactly data format are you using during import? Maybe post a screenshot of SQ4 import screen.
And can you attach also a short sample of the imported data file?
This error looks like configuration problem, it should be easy to fix.
