Is it possible to import history data to Zorro free version? - 06/19/17 16:59

I have installed the free version of Zorro Trader. I noticed that EURUSD historical data was installed with it. Is it possible to add more currencies historical data to the Zorro Trader free version?

If possible, please point me in the right direction.

Thanks!

I had read it. then I know that.

Zorro can only be called a toy now.
There is no perfect and convenient tick data supplement method,
Can not use dukascopy and other third-party data.
The most tragic is that its tick data content super simple, no spread, no volume.

Any work done with this data is a waste of time.

Here's what I have been doing/done to get zorro where I want it data wise (still ongoing):
>Copy the contents of AccountsCurr to AccountsFix (you only need to copy the symbols, add or remove more as you need them)
>Set up a demo account at FXCM, enter the account number and password at the top of zorro terminal (the labels aren't displaying on my terminal but the ID # goes in the upper left box, password in the upper right)
>Start download.c in test mode
>Click 'Single Asset' so i says 'All Assets'
>Change 'Save Assets To' from 'AssetsNew' to 'AssetsFix' then click 'Save Assets To' (this should update all the broker specific information in 'AssetsFix', open it and check it has changed)
> You now have two options:
1) set the year/asset in the download box and click 'Load M1 Data' (you can do all assets in AssetFix simultaneously by ensuring All Assets is set
2) Go here and follow this: http://www.opserver.de/ubb7/ubbthreads.php?ubb=showflat&Number=459580#Post459580 , it is a bit tricky but if you want more data than what FXCM has (ie Dukascopy data) then this is your only 'streamlined' option I have been able to find
