I used to use MetaStock professional v9 OFFLINE mode to read EOD data & charts. Recently, I joined a RT provider plan. But how can I reinstall the MetaStock to "eSignal-Broadcast" version. I tried several time, but it jumps over the process.

hi Pyradius, one side question, can we open realtime MS and MS Offline Mode at the same time?.... sometimes, I would like to backtest / back tracking while realtime data is updating..... sa

Dear KKchan, Hello. I decide to send you this Message because of the Troubles that you have! I want to note that i have Metastock 9.1 Pro for E-Signal. But i use that Program in the Offline Version like you, until a little days ago! My Data Provider in the End of Day Data that i receive into my Metastock, is Reutersdatalink Service. But the last Days i had decide to make a Trial to the Online E-Signal Service with my Metastock! So, before make that, i make some moves. The basic Move was to send E-Mail to Equis Support for to ask specific Questions about that Procedure. Also i make a Phone Call there, for to ask too. My basic Question was if the Explorations, the Formulas and the Expert Advisors that had into the Offline Version of my loved Metastock, will be saved if i decided it to use the Online Version of Metastock Pro with E-Signal. The first Step that need for to go from the Offline Metastock Pro for E-Signal to Online Metastock Pro for E-Signal, is to have decide that you will make the move to make a Subscription to E-Signal or a Trial Subscription to E-Signal! I say that, because for to work, the Online Version of Metastock Pro for E-Signal need a USERNAME AND A PASSWORD FROM E-SIGNAL. This Username and this Password, you need it, for to put it when you will make the Procedure, unistall the Offline Version of Metastock Pro for E-Signal that you have, to install the Online Version of Metastock Pro for E-Signal. If you have not decide to make the Subscription to E-Signal or the Trial Subscription to E-Signal, please do not make the Procedure to unistall the Offline Version of Metastock Pro for E-Signal that you have, to install the Online Version of Metastock Pro for E-Signal. I suggest also to make a Copy of the Equis Folder that you have into your Hard Disc and Paste it, into another Folder with a different Name into your Current Hard Disc or in a different Hard Disc before make the Procedure to unistall the Offline Version of Metastock Pro for E-Signal that you have, to install the Online Version of Metastock Pro for E-Signal. Also i believe that i am in the position to tell you and an E-Signal Representative that can help you with your Subscription to E-Signal. That Person help me when make the Subscription to E-Signal and also is my E-Signal Representative! His Name is Mr Ray Fitzgerald and his E-Mail Address is: rfitzgerald@mail.esignal.com You can contact with him, if you like. I will stop here because you must decide from your Side what you want. Kind Regards, George Kanellopoulos.

Dear KKchan, The Metastock Installation is quite simple. In your last post, i understand your Condition, like, to have make Installation or to try to make Installation with the Online Version of Metastock Pro for E-Signal. It is not possible to make the Installation to Online Version Metastock Pro for E-Signal, without to put when you make the Installation the USERNAME and the PASWORD from E-Signal. Now, you said that, you have also a Local Country Data Vendor for to receive Data. In that Case maybe need special Instructions from Equis Support. So, i suggest to contact there. You can make that with several Ways. If you like, try to send an E-Mail to support@equis.com that you will describe all of your problem. I am thinking seriously that you need special Instructions. Please try to contact and to do not make things alone, in your Computer Machine, without to have the knowledge for what you are doing. I say that because exist a chance to make damage to your Metastock Files. Kind Regards, George Kanellopoulos.

A quick word about email addresses: Although it's great to see people helping people, and if the Forum Member cannot help their peer directly, giving the name and email of someone who can help, it is probably best NOT to advertise the individual's email address in the open forum. Spammers have tools that trawl through Forums like our to collect email addresses etc, so its better that we use the PM feature to pass this sort of sensitive information. Email addresses that are already openly advertised such as support(at)equis.com are probably OK to show in the forum, but I think we should make an effort to keep our friend's and peer's email addresses private and out of the hands of the spammers. Another point might be, we have over 5000 members. One or two people emailing the individual might be OK, but what would happen if everybody needed help on the same subject and emailed the poor individual? That's why we discuss the problems in the open forum, so everyone with the same problem can benefit from the discussions and have their problems resolved. I am sure Ray F. doesn't want 5000 new emails in his intray every day from the Forum members, and another 5000 from spammers! But we do thank Ray F for his support, and George K for finding him! wabbit :D
