Hi

Is it possible to get metastock real time buy and sell signals into excel?

Thanks

@Mehul,

you have the following basic possibilities:

1. MS Pro has a default DDE Server to communicate with Excel
2. This "third party" library supports also data transfer to Excel:
MetaLib: SDK for reading/writing MetaStock security price data in VB, C#, Delphi, C++
3. programming a MDK DLL extension to the script language you can support this DLL with your signal information and write this in Excel

Item 3 requires programming know how, concerning items 1 and 2 you have to inform you, whether these methods allow not only price data transfer, but transfer of other information (like signals) too!

Hi !
Do you know if its possible to export the advisor signals in realtime ?
Can be to excel or creating a text file.

Thanks!
 
@RodrigoCohen,

as I know there's no such possibility currently built in.

There's only the possibility to use writeVal() to write a text message in the expert advisor commentary window or to create an alert.

The standard MSFL scripting language has no "write to text file"-commands (it's a pity!), so you perhaps need to use the MDK and write an external formula with C/C++, PowerBasic or Delphi or someone has just done this...
...I would ask in the Equis forums:
