Re: [EquisMetaStock Group] Using TC2005 Data

[Claudb <claudb@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

TC2005 WILL support Metastock beginning in March. They are still in the process of working out
beta bugs.

TC2005 does not support MetaStock any more as far as I can tell. Is
any one working on a new write up? There is no use reinventing the
wheel. If not I will try. (I am very new at this stuff.)

I have been able to generate data for the Russell 3000 using the text
output from TC2005 and the downloader. The bad news is the initial
file conversion for 2 years of data took several hours. The good news
is that a 1 day update takes about 5 minutes. I do not have the
fastest machine in the world but the process is mostly disk limited.
I put all the stocks in one directory. The limit of 2000 stocks in a
directory does not appear to exist for Version 9.

I am still working on how to automate the process. So any help there
would also be appreciated.

thanks
