    Alright :D

    Download this file
    Open the download, click on tools, convert.
    File type : ASCII text
    Browse to the file and select it ...

    for Destination select type : Metastock and then the folder you want it into and click on ok and it should convert ...

    Re: it's not fully right

    When you converted the file what periodicity did you select in your options? I left mine as daily ...
    Sorry to ask this but do you have MS PRO or EOD ?

    I have Metastock 9.0 End of Day! I'm afraid it's no suitable for intraday data, is it?

    Re: it's not fully right

    Convert it as a daily and change the name to reflect the real periodicity.
    After you only want to plot it right :D

    Let me know if it still does not show up.
