Could you help me upload Histdata tick datafiles into Data manager?
Here is the sample of data:
Date Time Bid Ask Volume
20160103 170015493,1.087010,1.087510,0

Hello,
the time value does not make sense to me. I guess the “170015493″ value represents 17 hours, 00 minutes and then I do not know what the rest means ..15493 represents. I would expected it to be 15.493 or 1.5493 possibly
You can only use “double s” for seconds i.e. “HHmmss” or similar

the format of the time field is:
HHmmss
the last three characters is for fraction of a second.
Therefore, the time stamp of “170049243″ meams 17 hours, 00 minutes, 49.243 seconds
Are you saying that there is no way to tell data manager what to do with last three characters?
Does it recognise fraction of a second, somehow?

Is the number of digits always 9 for the time format? You could then try to add the decimal point using Excel for example. The decimal point is necessary for the time recognition

Solved. I converted all files to Dukas format. Thank you.
