To acquire historical data in MetaTrader 5, the typical procedure involves using the "View > Symbols > Request" tool. However, this method occasionally omits certain data points that are present on the chart. An alternative solution is provided by a script that exports all available historical data to a CSV file. This file is located within the "Files" folder inside the "Common Data Path" directory. It is crucial to ensure that "Max bars in chart" is set to "Unlimited" under 'Tools > Options > Charts' to capture comprehensive data. This adjustment is necessary for the script to function effectively.
