Steve, I use Metastock data all of the time.  As Don says there is nothing special to do when using the Metastock plug-in.  To see if things had changed, I just made a new database without any problem and displayed all data.  Suggest you start from scratch and follow the database creation

[amibroker] Foreign() question

Hi,I was wondering if anyone could help me with the following problem:I'm trying to use a 65 day average in an intraday database.  Problem is that I don't (and generally won't) have 65 days worth of data.  I'm using IB as an intraday data source.  At the moment, I have a separate EOD database. 

RE: [amibroker] Foreign() question

While you cant use foreign to access AAPL-EOD, you can store 65days avg as a separate ticker using addtocomposite function. and use foreign to access the ema value directly. From: amibroker@yahoogroups.com [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Mark JarvisSent: Sunday, 2 July 2006 9:07

Thanks for that. The only issue I see with this is that I'm scanning abut 30 stocks. If I can create a new composite for each ticker it may be a solution. I'll look into it. Mark --- In amibroker@yahoogroups.com, "Paul Ho" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > While you cant use foreign to access AAP
