I tried to create a text file to export to, but the data did not export. What is the process to export testing results?

You can export account history to text file - on the Account history table click with right mouse button and choose "Expot history to file" then type file name with extension .txt and press ok.

You can export data to excel but its a two step process.

First, save data as a text file (Follow Mike's instructions on saving as text) and save it as a .txt file on your desktop. Remember the name

Second, open Excel and then go File>Open an then search for the file you just saved as .txt

Third, you'll get a dialog box called "Text Import Wizard". There will be 3 steps.
a) First step, make sure you choose "Delimited", and hit NEXT
b)Second step, make sure you put a check on "TAB" only, hit NEXT
c)Last step, make sure you choose "GENERAL", hit NEXT

This should convert info into excel usable data. Hope this helps!

You guys have made it very complicated to export trade history results.
I did exactly as you said and excel does not arrange the data in proper columns but it displays it the same as in txt file.
Now I have cut and paste one by one and arrange the data which is very tedious.
Kindly provide an option to export trade history to html file like in MT4....
Pls make it simpler. Pls dont make it complicated.

Hello,
