Forex Tick Data for MT4 EURUSD USDJPY GBPUSD EURJPY AUDUSD

I’ve just been hunting for some metatrader tick data for the last couple hours and finally found some. Here is an excellent tutorial on how to import 1 minute tick data from mt4 and also how to convert it to other time frames. There is also a link to a file  that has tick data from 2001 up to 2009! Tick Data.

So far I got it working for either the 2001-2006 tick data or the 2004-2009 data (two different mt4 installs), I wasn’t able to put them together all in one file.  For newer tick data there is some available on the forex tester website under data sources. That’s a handy piece of software by the way as you can use it for visual backtesting, it’s like you have a rewind and fast-forward button and can actually enter instant and pending orders, stops, etc and it keeps track of your wins/losses. The only thing I don’t like is that you can’t use custom indicators, just the usual ones that come with mt4.

Here is a link to a forum where someone uploaded a bunch of tick data for e/j a/j g/j and more. You have to do a bit of work but it’s doable. Tip: Most of the links are expired but the megaupload links still work. More Tick Data
