ASCII To MetaStock Conversion Utility

This program allows you to easily convert data from our website into the MetaStock/Computrac format which can be readily accessed by most charting and technical analysis software.

Converting our data into native MetaStock/Computrac format has never been easier. Simply select the folder where the files were downloaded to (Source Directory), select where you would like the data stored (Destination Directory) and click on Convert. That's It! - It doesn't get any easier.

Step by Step Instructions

These instructions outline the steps you needed to convert the data downloaded from our website into a format that many of the leading charting and technical analysis packages can read. MetaStock/Computrac format is natively used by many stock market programs such as OmniTrader, AMIBroker, AdvancedGET and therefore these instructions are also applicable to customers using those products.

Step One

Once you are registered on our website, you can alter the format of the files you download through the Members section. Please ensure that your format is set to: MetaStock ASCII (7 column).

Step Two

Download any end of our day files through the Download section and save them to a directory on your computer (eg: C:\Download).

Step Three

Convert the data using our Conversion Utility or import it directly into your software (if supported).
