Default GBPJPY Historical Data Needed

Hi - I'm trying to backwards test an EA but having trouble finding good historical data. The link that I see recommended everywhere is just leading to their sitemap now (http://www.alpari-idc.com/en/dc/databank.php)

Does anybody have historical data for GBPJPY for atleast the last year (longer would be even better)?

Please post of PM me if you can help.

Thanks

Lux

Doesn't sound silly to me. I always forget how to import the ticks myself.

Ok, import the data by go to: Tools menu > History Center. Select appropriate pair/timeframe and you can import from there by clicking Import button. You can even delete bad/duplicated data. Restart MetaTrader, and you're set to go.
