Complete dl_bt_metaquotes.py script which downloads DAT files (undocumented format) and converts them into plain CSV format. The converted data should be consistent, currently it's not.
It converts some of the data, but it still has some problems with unknown blocks.
Please note that this task may be challenging, since the format is undocumented (unknown) and it may use some custom or possibly it's less-known compression, however most of it is already there, so it's a matter of debugging and implementing missing bits.
The output should predictable and fairly simply (timestamp, open, high, low, close, volume). The script dumps the partial data, but it doesn't understand all of it (its storing mechanism).
