What can you do using only metalstock?

When you buy metastock, you will also have to buy esignal or something like that right? What if you only have metastock, is it possible to download free data?
And why is it so expensive? What can it do? Thanks

Data for Metastock...

When you buy metastock, you will also have to buy esignal or something like that right? What if you only have metastock, is it possible to download free data?

Hi,

there are many possibilities concerning free price data for Metastock.

One way is to download EOD data from Yahoo (Yahoo! Finance), convert it to a input file for the Metastock Downloader - e.g. using a freeware tool from my website 'Zen Data Converter v1,1e' (www.zentrader.de - trading system development and monte carlo simulation methodology ...) and put it from the MS Downloader to Metastock.

bye,
zentrader

MLDownloader will grab EOD data from Yahoo and convert it into Metastock format: EOD historical stock quotes/prices and FOREX data for MetaStock. They have a free trial.
