// FXTHeader History Files in FXT Format
// https://www.metatrader4.com/en/trading-platform/help/autotrading/tester/tester_fxt
//
// Documentation on the format can be found in terminal Help (Client terminal - Auto Trading - Strategy Testing - History Files FXT).
// However the obtained data shows that the data does not match the declared format.
// In the eye catches the fact that the work is carried out over time in both formats: the new and the old MQL4.
// So, members of fromdate and todate structure TestHistoryHeader , and ctm structure TestHistory use the old (4 hbaytny) date / time format, but a member of otm structure TestHistory written in the new (8-byte) date / time format.
// It is unclear whether the correct type of selected members unknown.
// The FXT as teak prices recorded only Bid, but its spread is written in the Volume field.
// By breaking MT4 is obtained to ensure that the MT4-tester figured on each tick Ask, how the Bid + the Volume (that's the trick).
