Export into MetaStock

To export data to MetaStock format files, select the Txt format from the drop-down list:

hydra export

When exporting to text format (Txt) files, a window appears:

hydra export Meta Stock 2

In this window, specify the export template, where the curly brackets indicate the properties to export and their order:

{SecurityId.SecurityCode},5,{OpenTime:yyyyMMdd},{OpenTime:HHmmss},{OpenPrice},{HighPrice},{LowPrice},{ClosePrice},{TotalVolume}

In the example, the five-minute candle timeframe is specified in the second position.

Also, the first line (Header) should be set in the file:

<TICKER>,<PER>,<DATE>,<TIME>,<OPEN>,<HIGH>,<LOW>,<CLOSE>,<VOL>
