Wolfgang,

Many thanks for the information - I had a look and it seems to do the job but I was a bit concerned that it only claimed to run on Windows versions up to 8. I am all on windows 10 at the moment.

I have now subscribed to EOD Data at EODData.com. The Silver subscription gives access to the whole LSE. It downloads on a scheduler each day and, if I choose Metastock Binary as the format, OT reads that with no issues.

As there is currently (maybe always!!) a 50% discount there at the moment, I purchased 10 years of historic data for the whole LSE for $25.

The only issue I have at the moment is getting some (don't need it all) of that historic data into OT. EOD Data supply a conversion utility but I don't want to have to convert each day of data individually for a year. I have also found that the symbol structure is different in the historic data to the current data (the historic data has a .L on the end to denote LSE and the current data doesn't) so the two do not merge but show as separate signals - have asked EODData for assistance with this and will report back when I have a solution. Will be in a couple of weeks as about to go on holiday!!
