CSV Columns Explained

How to Use the XNGUSD 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) and run Strategy Tester backtests on the exact series.
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. Keep the daily settlement break and weekend gaps in your assumptions — energy CFDs widen spreads at rollover and gap over weekends.

import pandas as pd

df = pd.read_csv("XNGUSDm_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

XNGUSD Historical Data — FAQ

How far back does the XNGUSD data go?

XNGUSD data spans Mar 2022 – Oct 2026 overall. M30, H1, H4, D1, W1 and MN1 hold the full broker history; M1, M5 and M15 contain the most recent 100,000 candles each (the MT5 terminal window). All files end with the latest bar at export time — 19 October 2026.

What does XNGUSD mean?

XNGUSD is the broker symbol for the natural gas CFD — XNG stands for the gas contract, USD for its dollar quotation, and the trailing “m” (XNGUSDm) is this broker’s server suffix. Other brokers list the same instrument as NATGAS, NGAS or GAS. Rename the files to match your own MT5 Market Watch.

Which MT5 symbol name does this dataset use?

The files are exported from the XNGUSDm symbol (broker “m” suffix). Rename them to match your own broker’s symbol — XNGUSD, NATGAS, NGAS, Henry Hub CFD. The CSV structure (Timestamp, Open, High, Low, Close, TickVolume, Spread) is identical across brokers.

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

Yes. Every file is plain CSV: Timestamp, Open, High, Low, Close, TickVolume, Spread. Energy CFDs trade nearly around the clock on weekdays with a daily settlement break — the series reflects the broker’s real sessions, including spread widening at the daily rollover and the weekend gaps. Load it as an MT5 custom symbol for Strategy Tester runs, or directly in pandas.
