bobaloo Posted August 20, 2011 Report Posted August 20, 2011 I have spent a day reading and re-reading Tradestation's manual for 3rd party data and for the life of me I can't seem to import Metatstock or ASCII data into Tradestation. If anybody has been able to do this, could you please explain how you did it. TIA ⭐ Apollo 1 Quote
Aeddi Posted August 20, 2011 Report Posted August 20, 2011 Have you checked this out?: https://www.tradestation.com/support/webinars/archives/screen_size.asp?id=importing_data I have just taken a quick look, so I can not tell you how. I am going to do the same myself. Edit: By the way, where did you get that manual? It would be interesting to take a look. Aeddi EasyMoney and ⭐ rcarlos1947 2 Quote
bobaloo Posted August 22, 2011 Author Report Posted August 22, 2011 Thanks Aeddi. But apparently you have to have a tradestation id number for that to work. I downloaded it and all I get is a blank screen. Quote
Aeddi Posted August 23, 2011 Report Posted August 23, 2011 (edited) Bobaloo, you should just see the button "Launch Web Seminar" when you use the link I provided. When you push the button it pops up in a new window. Have you tried with both IE and Firefox? It works with both for me. You have to wait a bit though before i starts. Unfortunately one have to watch the whole thing every time. One can not go back and forth, so it would actually been nice to be able to download it all. Edit: Ok. Now I started to think that you maybe was referring to the manual you mentioned before. If that's the case, sorry :) Aeddi Edited August 23, 2011 by Aeddi ⭐ Apollo and bobaloo 2 Quote

Aeddi Posted August 23, 2011 Report Posted August 23, 2011 (edited) Thank you Apollo :) Edit: No, regarding the download actually fantastic Apollo. Great quality. Thank you for taking time to do this. What tool did you use to record it? Laurus Edited August 23, 2011 by Aeddi Quote

Aeddi Posted August 27, 2011 Report Posted August 27, 2011 Hi! Aeddi, It’s called “Skills”!!! :D:D:D A name that fits the user! Pretty cool :D I did a search, but got various hits. If you could share a link and a snapshot of your settings with the program I would be most thankful. Aeddi Quote
⭐ Apollo Posted September 4, 2011 Report Posted September 4, 2011 Hi! Aeddi, The “Coolest” part is… I don’t use any… and I don’t need to…>:)>:)>:) Quote
EasyMoney Posted September 5, 2011 Report Posted September 5, 2011 Aeddi One could use realplayer to download the vid, or look into the source of the webpage. Sometimes that provides links for it. Easiest way is with realplayer tho. Quote
⭐ Apollo Posted September 5, 2011 Report Posted September 5, 2011 Hi! EasyMoney, Still… I don’t use any… and I don’t need to…:)):)):)) Quote
agostini Posted September 16, 2011 Report Posted September 16, 2011 Has anyone tried simply exporting ASCII data from 8.7 and then import into 9.0? If that doesn't work what is happening? ps I would love to get this program working with the simulator and history data. Quote
