Re: Data Folders in Metastock

Steve:

I use separate DATA folders for each industry I follow and I've done that from
day one five years ago. I did this to be able to readily compare the charts
for each stock within the industry. Separately, I keep one folder for the
INDICES available for each industry and another folder for weekly data for
each industry GROUP.

DATA folders include Airlines, Autos, Biotech, Chemicals, Papers, Drugs,
Semiconductors, etc., to name a few.

The major benefit to this practice is that stocks within an industry tend to
move together. When the move starts, a study of each chart helps to make a
better timing selection of a stock that tends to move faster than the others
or has better TA support.

Hope this helps.
