CSV Columns Explained

How to Use the DOT Data

1. Download the ZIP and extract the nine CSV files.
2. For MT5: import the CSVs into a custom symbol (Market Watch → Symbols → Create Custom Symbol → Import Bars) — this works for live and delisted symbols alike — or use them for offline analysis.
3. For Python: load with pandas, parse the Timestamp column, sort ascending and build features (returns, range, session flags).
4. Run a data-quality pass first: duplicate timestamps, OHLC violations and unexpected gaps are the three checks that catch most bad imports.
5. Remember crypto trades weekends — treat weekend candles as real liquidity, not as noise, when calibrating stops.

import pandas as pd

df = pd.read_csv("DOTUSDm_PERIOD_M30_OHLC.csv")
df["Timestamp"] = pd.to_datetime(df["Timestamp"])
df = df.sort_values("Timestamp").set_index("Timestamp")

df["range"] = df["High"] - df["Low"]
df["body"]  = (df["Close"] - df["Open"]).abs()
df["ret"]   = df["Close"].pct_change()

print(df.tail())
print(df[["range", "body", "TickVolume", "Spread"]].describe())

Also Known As

DOT is listed under several names depending on the broker: DOTUSD, DOT/USD, Polkadot CFD. The dataset works with any of them — rename the files or the custom symbol to match your MT5 Market Watch exactly.

DOT Historical Data — FAQ

How far back does the DOT data go?

DOT data spans Jul 2021 – Aug 2024. M30, H1, H4, D1, W1 and MN1 hold the full history for that window; M1, M5 and M15 contain the most recent 100,000 candles before the symbol was delisted. This is the complete available broker history for DOT.

Why does the DOT data end in Aug 2024?

The broker delisted DOT in Aug 2024, so the feed stops there — this ZIP contains every candle the feed produced from Jul 2021 to Aug 2024. You can still load it into MT5 as a custom symbol for backtesting, or use it in Python for research. Delisted windows like this are valuable because the data is frozen and cannot be revised.

Can I use this data for MT5 backtesting and machine learning?

Yes. Every file is plain CSV: Timestamp, Open, High, Low, Close, TickVolume, Spread. Crypto trades 24/7 including weekends, so the series has no session gaps. Since the symbol is no longer live at this broker, import it as a custom symbol in MT5 to run Strategy Tester backtests, or load it directly in pandas.
