What does this expert advisor do?
This MT4 expert advisor is an indicator that you can attach to MetaTrader charts.  It will export streaming historical data from MetaTrader to simple Excel or text files.  Just download the file. You can then drag and drop the EX4 indicator to any MetaTrader chart.

The data files contain 1000 historical records and continuously update in real time. You can use this data yourself or connect it to other charting programs.

MT4 Expert Advisor Installation for Ramp.

Step 1:
Be sure that MetaTrader 4 is installed on your computer.
MetaTrader is provided as a free Forex real time trading platform by many Forex brokers.  You can generally download and install MetaTrader 4 from your broker.

If you do not have a broker who provides MetaTrader, you can go to Click here and open a free demonstration account. These instructions will use this demonstration account, however, any MetaTrader 4 installation will work.

Step 2:
Find the MetaTrader folder on your computer.
 Ramp needs the location of your MetaTrader "files" folder.  You will want to locate this folder so that you can set up Ramp for the first time.  You will only need to do this once.

Open Windows Explorer and you will see a window that will show you the files and folders on your computer.  Here, you can navigate to the MetaTrader folder under "C:\Program File (x86)\" or for older computers "C:\Program Files\" .

To locate this folder, you can right click on the MetaTrader icon on your desktop and then left click on "Properties".  You will see an image like the one at the right.  Your MetaTrader folder is shown under "Start In".  Make note of where this folder is and its name. You will need it in the next step.

Step 3:
 Be sure that you are running MetaTrader 4 as the administrator. 
Find the application file named "terminal" or "terminal.exe" in the MetaTrader folder as shown in the image below. 

Right click on the file and select "Properties" and then the "Compatibility" tab.  You will see the image to the right.

Check "Run this program as the administrator". 

Click on "Change settings for all users" and then "Apply".

Step #4:
Download the MT4 Expert Advisor
Run the Ramp Program and select MetaTrader as your data source.  To do this, click on the "Select a Data Source" pull down under Step1.  Then, select "Free MT4 Real Time FOREX". 

 

 Forext Real Time Chart Pattern Recognition Selection.

A window that looks like the image at the right will pop up.

In this window, navigate to your MetaTrader folder. Under the MetaTrader folder is a folder called "experts".  Go into the "experts" folder and then find a folder named "files" and click on it.  This is the folder that MetaTrader exports the data files to.   In the image shown, you can see that 4 data files already exist. 

Yours will probably be empty the first time you see it.  It is very important that you click on "Open" even if there are no files shown.

Click on the "Open" button at the bottom of the window.  This tells Ramp exactly where to look for MetaTrader data files.

The MT4 expert advisor file named Export-RT-Historical-Data-for-Ramp.ex4 is now installed.

Step #5:
Add the "Export-RT-Historical-Data-for-Ramp" indicator to your MetaTrader charts.
Any chart in MetaTrader 4 that has the "Export-RT-Historical-Data-for-Ramp" indicator attached to it will export the streaming real time historical data file to the "\experts\files\" folder.  Ramp will be able to read this data.

To attach the data export indicator to a chart, find "Custom Indicators" in MT4. See the image at the right.  This indicator was added to MetaTrader's custom indicators by Ramp when you showed Ramp where MetaTrader is in step 4 above.  If it does not exist in MetaTrader, be sure you have completed step 4 above.

You can drag and drop this indicator onto any MetaTrader chart.  It will continuously update that chart's data in the MetaTrader files folder where Ramp can read it.

If you add the indicator to your default template in MetaTrader, all charts that you open will automatically export data to .csv files.  Be sure that you open a chart with the  indicator in it for each currency pair and timeframe you want to use.  In Ramp, be sure that you ask for the same currency pair and time frame.  The symbols have to match up exactly.

Summary:
MetaTrader exports data to its own "files" folder. Ramp and other programs can read the files from that folder.  Ramp is a stand alone application and does not run within the MetaTrader program.  Only the MT4 expert advisor indicator runs within MetaTrader.  As long as you have the indicator attached to an open chart, that chart is feeding data to the files folder where any program can read it.  In the Ramp Program, don't forget to request the same currency pair symbols and time frames you are exporting with MetaTrader 4.  Both programs must be running and the same symbols must be referenced by both programs.
