    Brother, if you don't know how to program, why are you complicated with MT4? Go to TradingView and forget about these crazy things.

    One option is to load your CSV into Excel and from there create a macro that generates the HST file directly. There are templates all over the internet for that.

    I've already seen some templates, but most of them are misdocumented or have mistakes. Any recommendations?

    Search for CSV2FXT in GitHub. That tool turns your CSV into FXT and HST. It requires some patience, but it works.

    Is it really worth all this for importing a CSV? Use MT4�s own history, they are not perfect, but enough for most.

    I just need to back up custom data, actions and ETFs that MT4 doesn't offer. That's why I need to import my own data.

    Then use custom symbols and generate your own feeds. MT4 allows it, but it is not plug and play. You have to put your hand in it.

    If you still can't import the CSV, send me the file for private. I'll check and tell you what's wrong.

    Does your CSV have headers or not? If it has headers, delete them. MT4 doesn't know what to do with a text row.
