Hi, I'm very new to Metastock and was looking to mark my charts at buy and sell points with something like a symbol. From what I can work out, Metastock won't allow you to tie a symbol to a particular date ie buy or sell date? Am I incorrect or is there another way of achieving what I want to do? Any help would be much appreciated. Childo

hey childo..... when you insert text, the option exists to anchor to date.... actually that might by default be checked.... any text you insert will stay in place anchored unless you uncheck that option.... its under text properties..... sorry about that confusing picture, it was meant for something else.... holler back if ya don't follow....h

Hi Childo, I use an Expert with the symbols tab for Longs and Shorts. I have to manually enter the exact dates of the signals generated by another Expert I use but I then can apply this Expert to any Chart I view. Here is example code for shorts: {short tab with graphic = red down arrow} Date1:=Month()=12 AND DayOfMonth()=23 AND Year()=2005; Date4:=Month()=1 AND DayOfMonth()=13 AND Year()=2006; Date:=Date1 OR Date4; Date Thanks, Charley
