Hi Kaushik

You can do this in the Explorer or in a custom indicator by using the Security() function three times, once for each security.

Here's an example of what your exploration column or indicator might look like. I'm assuming that you have MetaStock 11 or earlier and use local data. If you're using MS 12 or online data then the syntax may be a little different and you will need to refer to your MetaStock User Manual.

{VolumeX3}
M1V:=Security("C:\MetaStock Data\Sample\M1",V);
M2V:=Security("C:\MetaStock Data\Sample\M2",V);
M3V:=Security("C:\MetaStock Data\Sample\M3",V);
M1V + M2V + M3V;

Having the correct pathname for each securirity is critical for this code to work. I strongly suggest that you first make an indicator using this code as a starting point. Only when you have the indicator working properly should you use the code in an exploration. Neither an indicator nor an exploration will work if the security pathname is incorrect in any way.

Security Name Reason for Rejection Location
ABIRLANUVO-M1 Error in column A: Error retrieving data for Security() function. Folder does not exist Path: D:\Meta Data\Con New Data\ Symbol: M1 D:\Meta Data\Con_New_Data
ABIRLANUVO-M2 Error in column A: Error retrieving data for Security() function. Folder does not exist Path: D:\Meta Data\Con New Data\ Symbol: M1 D:\Meta Data\Con_New_Data
ABIRLANUVO-M3 Error in column A: Error retrieving data for Security() function. Folder does not exist Path: D:\Meta Data\Con New Data\ Symbol: M1 D:\Meta Data\Con_New_Data

Hi kaushik

MetaStock is telling you that the pathname is incorrect (Folder does not exist), and I warned you that you would get an error in that situation. I also suggested that you should create an indicator that worked before trying to build the exploration.

"D:\Meta Data\Con_New_Data" and "D:\Meta data\con Meta data\" don't look identical to me, so I suggest that you fix that error first. In your post you say that the path is "D:\Meta data\con Meta data\", but the MetaStock error message is saying that the path provided is "D:\Meta data\con Meta data\". You must fix that discrepancy.

Also keep in mind that the symbol in the Security function must match exactly the symbol that is in the datasheet for the security you are trying to call.
