I have successfully removed few errors but still a confusion is there. What is the format of the input csv file?
I am confused whether to give the ticks or OHLC? Please let me know the format of the header of the CSV. If possible can you share one small file that will help me in testing it please?

@kenorb Please let me know what you can tell me regarding this issue?

  • FXT is tick level data format, so ticks.
  • HST is OHLC format.

For the format, have a look at this format: https://github.com/FX-Data/FX-Data-EURUSD-DS/tree/EURUSD-2019/EURUSD/2019/01 (you can download these files as a start).

I would recommend to use convert_csv_to_mt.py Python script instead for the conversion (CSV->FXT), you can find it in FX31337/FX-BT-Scripts. Since I'm not familiar with Birt's script.

If you're looking for already generated FXT files ready to run on the platform, check FX-Data repo releases.

@kenorb Thank you for your time. I will sure try this.
Is there any other way I can contact you?
