Show me please your "C:\Users\your_name\AppData\Roaming\MetaQuotes\Terminal\Common\Files\" folder and News settings from the Inputs tab.

What time interval do you use for testing?

I'm using the "H1" timeframe for testing and live trading.
Please find my folder structure and EA settings in the following screenshots:

I've got it! It is because you start testing at the end of month. It skips file for August.

I've already fix this, will be available in the next version.

For now, please, set the start date to 01.08.2022.

No, it should detect timezone automatically.

Launch the EA and draw news on chart (button on panel), then compare news with https://www.forexfactory.com/calendar

They must match.

Hi all, last update files on google-drive september 2022.

Will the folder be updated in the future?

Is it possible to upload such files from forexfactory on my own? How?

        Hey!

        Sorry, it is my bad. I forget to update the google folder (just did it).

        I also uploaded sNewsLoader script, you can use it yourself to download history of news (DLLs must be enabled in your MT5).

        Let me know it you need further assistance.

        Unpack archive and save all files to the common folder of all MetaTraders on your PC: C:\Users\your_name\AppData\Roaming\MetaQuotes\Terminal\Common\Files\

        You should have the following directory and files structure after unpack:
