Graham,
OK thanks for that, I'll have a look at Metastock's "The Downloader".
The stock is actually SIG.AX and will have a couple of symbols before
it's merged with AWP. I'm just concerned about keeping my trailing
stop going through the merge while keeping the past SIG data as that
is what the buy signal was on.
Cheers Glenn
