once you open Eikon
look at the top tabs.
you will see a add icon with a down arrow next to this.
click on the arrow
then flex document
If you then click on UK& Irland it brings up a template thats pre done for UK.
Just work through all the different templates on there.
You are gonna love it

Cheers

The way to get all the list of tickers is through Eikon
Copy all the tickers from there,
then paste it into excel,
then copy from excel into metastock.you have to click on power console then manage custom list then new.This is where you paste it into. so call it what ever you want. You have to paste it with
Control + V into here. Make certain you highlight the boxes individually before copying.

Ill put some videos up when i get a chance.

im getting the hang of it now after fighting with it all night long and all day long.
The problem with the metastock 12 is they have changed all the tickers.
Hence the problem. They have made it one code ...so basically to match reuters.

Have you played around with Eikon?????
Its awesome.
Only problem im having with this is the interactive map. I cant find it.
but working on it.

Hi Remo
Can I please have pre-done templates once they do for you?
I am in progress of looking for LSE symbols, have you got symbols list for any of those ready ?
I can't find gold, any currencies, dow, ftse100 etc?
Thanks (a bit confused with MS12)

I have been playing around with the new Reuters Eikon for a few hours now.
Its very comprehensive. Ill put a video up tomorrow when i get a chance.
Im well impressed with this. This is worth the money in my honest opinion.

Ive also updated to metastock 12.....
Big mistake as i think its more complex than before. Not a fan of this part . Im gonna have to get a lot of pre done index codes . They have done it so that you can get any share in the whole wide world.
It may seem like a great idea but then you have to find it. Ive only managed to find the ftse 100 so far and i have been looking for a few hours.

Im gonna have to get them to do a lot of pre-done templates to make it easier.
Oh why did i update to this....dohhhhhh

remo

This will be released in about an hours time so keep an eye on it.

The above is just a snippet of whats coming.

Hi guys and girls,



This is for the members that have already purchased or thinking about purchasing MetaStock Pro.

Just to let you lot know that they are releasing a major upgrade to there software next week.

This upgrade is a world beater and trust me when I say this. Its Amazing.

I had the luxury of being shown what's coming due to my relationship I have with them.

They are getting rid of quote center and replacing it totally with a new system. Can't say as it's been released on monday.



This system makes looking for news real easy. I have got them to program the news for ChartsView members so it will be configured to UK shares.

It will have the FTSE 350 and the AIM shares ready to use. So any member that's got MetaStock via ChartsView already will get access to this.

You can find out every detail about any company, fundamentalist will love this!



The News is exactly what the institution use so it will level the playing field as such for all of us. I'm not exaggerating when I say this.

There's a whole lot more to this but it's only a few days wait now so you will find out for yourself.



The catch...

From what I gather ..

It's more expensive about $1440 a year. Obviously this is for the data, which will include your real time charts and real time News and all the data as well.(remember it's in dollars).

However, if you already have their quote center subscription you are the lucky ones! As it won't cost any extra for ChartsView members that already have it. The cut-off is 90 days, so roughly from July 21st but for the guys and girls that went through ChartsView earlier they might extend it hopefully. I will negotiate on your behalf (otherwise you may have to pay to upgrade software).

They are releasing MetaStock 12.0 soon, so if you have MetaStock 11.0 then they will possibly upgrade ChartsView members free.

Also if you purchase before Monday coming then you will get it for $1249 and that also goes for the monthly paying customers who pay roughly $135 a month. The monthly is going up as well to $150. As long as you don't cancel it they will keep it the same price as before for ChartsView members (not 100% certain as have not got this in writing).

So if you can afford this then take out the offer before Monday as once they announce the new system its going to go up in price.

Remember...Initially it's cost is more as you have to buy MetaStock Pro. Then all you have to pay for is the subscription so the actual cost in the long run is lower. It's worth the money if your planning on staying with them the long haul, as every year all you have to do is pay for the data. Which works out cheaper than any other UK provider like for like.

Once you have purchased the software(you own it), so you just have to buy the data.

Anyway like I said it's truly amazing and I was blown away with the demo for ChartsView.

Watch this space as I will be showing more examples when I'm allowed too.(After Monday).
