MasterDATAlink Now Generates MetaStock Format Price Files
The MasterDATAlink downloader program released earlier this month now additionally generates MetaStock format datafiles. Users now have the option of automatically creating MetaStock format price files (Metafiles) from the downloaded .csv composite / breadth datafiles. Soon, capabilities will be added allowing creation of such datafiles to incorporate any data field within MasterDATACSV’s downloadable .csv datafiles.
While MasterDATA’s plug-ins allow MetaStock to directly read our .csv composite / breadth datafiles, these values can only be plotted on MetaStock charts as lines or histograms (similar to values calculated within MetaStock formulas). Only MetaStock format files can be plotted as bar or candlestick charts. This new MasterDATAlink capability presents infinite new possibilities for displaying market statistics within MetaStock. Click here for more information.
