Gekko encountered an error and can't continue

Error:

History directory does not exist.



Meta debug info:

Gekko version: v0.5.12
Nodejs version: v9.5.0

Any idea why?

Where are my imports ??

Thanks

I found it : The candle.writer was off (


Now a really hard question for me : 

In the config files when you sepeiciy the   Candelsize and the history size... are these in minutes?
So 10 is 10 min?

then, does it affect the import? (I assume not, but i am not sure) so if I imort a year with these settings on 1 and 1 
And then in the paper trade i use 10 or 5 or 15, they all can use the same import right?

Last question: when i run a new strategy from CL do i have to build the Tombl file also? Or can I just have the settings in the strategy?

Thanks a lot..
