Basic Charting with MetaStock
Setting the Standard with Charting
MetaStock creates charts that quickly and easily map a clear profit strategy! You can create charts so revealing, they'll give you an unfair advantage in the marketplace.
"I like MetaStock's drawing interfaces enormously. I like being able to easily put several charts together and draw a vertical line through all of them. That sounds simple, but surprisingly few packages allow you to do that."
~ Dennis D. Peterson

Templates, Layouts, and Toolbars
- Templates
A Template lets you apply the same set of indicators and studies to different securities. Once a chart is saved as a template it retains all the settings of your chart excluding the base security. This allows you to quickly rotate through securities while keeping the same indicators and line studies on the screen and will save you hours of work.
- Layouts
Layouts are a convenient way to manage groups of charts. You can combine your favorite stocks into one easily managed group. Or combine your favorite security with the Dow and several of your favorite indicators. You can save all your on-screen charts together like pages in a book.
- Built-in toolbars
These let you easily refresh data, change periodicity, rescale the Y Axis, zoom in and out, choose "previous" or "next security" in the open folder, and choose a security to open.
- Object-Oriented Interface
MetaStock is the only technical analysis program with a complete Object Oriented Interface. That means you can click on the object you're working with to get an instant menu for that item.

Technical Analysis Tools
The ExplorerTM
Scan the Markets to Find Winning Securities
Finding profitable trading opportunities starts with scanning the markets for securities that meet your criteria. With how vast the markets are, this is an overwhelming and next to impossible task on your own. However, MetaStock's built-in search tool, The Explorer, makes it quick and simple.
Tell The Explorer the characteristics you're looking for. Working quietly in the background (freeing your computer for other tasks), The Explorer scrutinizes thousands of securities to find the ones that fit your criteria to a tee. You can also use The Explorer to calculate the value of your favorite indicators, generate a short list of potential money-makers, find the biggest gainers and most actives, or generate daily buy and sell signals - all based on your criteria.
The Expert AdvisorTM
Consult the Experts
The Expert Advisor is an educational tool that helps you interpret technical analysis signals. This compilation of trading styles and rules from experts such as Martin Pring, Gilbert Raff, and Bill Williams offers commentaries and suggestions as to when to buy or sell a security. This tool gives you 60 "experts" to apply to your trading.
The Enhanced System TesterTM
Put your Trading Ideas to the Test
You can create, back-test, compare, and perfect your strategies before you risk any of your money in the markets. System testing helps answer the question, "If I had traded this security using these trading rules, how much money would I have made or lost?"
You'll be able to track changes over a given test period, helping you decide which systems and securities are most likely to earn a consistent return, and which aren't. Designed to help you simulate a more realistic trading scenario, the Enhanced System Tester allows you to change and edit variables such as entry, exit, expanded stops, order sizes, commissions and more.
