<DIV>Subject: Data Organization and Downloader Automation</DIV></DIV>
<DIV><BR></DIV>&gt; Hello,<BR>&gt; MetaStock stores theoretically up to 2000 
tickers in directory. I read<BR>&gt; somewhere that one should save maximum 1000 
tickers in a directory for the<BR>&gt; sake of performance.<BR>&gt; I collect 
data in csv format from quote.yahoo.com and convert data in a text<BR>&gt; 
format, which the Downloader can convert to MetaStock format.<BR>&gt; I am going 
to have more than 2000 tickers to deal with and looking for a way<BR>&gt; to 
organize data in several MetaStock directory.<BR>&gt; I have 2 questions 
:<BR>&gt; 1)How do you organize/split your data in MetaStock directory 
(alphabetical<BR>&gt; order or group according industry membership) ? Pros and 
Cons of you<BR>&gt; approach ?<BR>&gt; 2)How can I automate the Downloader task 
of conversion from ASCII to<BR>&gt; MetaStock format ?<BR>&gt; <BR>&gt;

The v6.5 multiple indicators plotted from one(1) single custom indicator, have
-by default-  all the same colour.

Upgrade to v7.x to have  -by default-  each one of the multiple custom indicator
plotted in your own preferenced colour.
