  • Re: How to lock indicator to work only on one computer?

    At first, I thought there might be some function(s) in MetaStock (other password protected) to handle this case. Now I realised that it is quite complicated. Moreover it is absolutely true that most people (including me) will doubt on black box system. If this is the case, do not distribute code as you suggested is the most appropiate for me.

    Thanks Wabbit. :-) Since I have never bought any MetaStock formula add-on. How do they prevent the user from buying one copy of the formula and distribute to the public?

I am not used to The Downloader, &nbsp;but what you suggest sounds like converting from&nbsp; ascii to MetaStock file.
