AlexCatarino e7680d0b25 Fixes BasicTemplateFxcmVolumeAlgorithm
The previous version was using unexisting data. At the moment, we only have hour and daily-resolution data for forex volume.
Once the resolution is changed, we have to modify the resolution of the indicator since both indicators in WeightedBy must have the same resolution.
