I think I remember in SC2.1 I had to create a text file in a spread sheet or
text editor and import it into the data manager. Then your all set to add
data manually. Not sure, but I seem to recall the text file needs at least 3
days data to be importable. Read the manual to get the right format. One
file for each symbol.
SC4 might be similar.
