Re: Futures Traders/Metastock

I keep selected old charts in another folder as references to favorite chart
patterns, but old histories are available from my data provider, Pisces.    The
only other separation I use is the larger continuation charts into their own
folder.   All other current contracts both nearby and outer month go in
together.   I found this faster.   With the new metastock, directories can now
hold more than 255 files, so I'll probably bring the continuation charts back in
with the rest.
