  1. Just wondering if anyone is going to update the Nas 100 data that was posted on Traders2Traders. I only have the data up to Aug. 02 2002 .

    I tried using naz100 data with MetaStock, but to no avail. Can someone tell me how can I convert it in MetaStock format. I suspect the problem is with the time format.It is for instance 945 or 1045 and for MetaStock it should be 09:45 and 10:45 respectively.How can that be fixed?
    Thanks.

    Excel can open only up to 65k lines. Open file in MSWord and you'll get all the data
