The Equis Formula Primer is the first stop for new users of MetaStock to learn how to write codes in the MetaStock Formula Language. It will guide the reader through a series of exercises that explain what the MetaStock Formula Language is and how it works. It gradually increases the user's knowledge to a point where they can create their own custom indicators, expert advisors, system tests and explorations.
You can download it
free of charge, either from the Files section of the forum, or directly from:
http://forum.equis.com/files/19673/download.aspxI strongly recommend every MetaStock user completes these exercises; a little time spent now doing some basic homework will make coding trading ideas in the future so much easier.
