If you want to set up your MetaStock local data files used by CUE Market Breadth as I have set up, you may follow the steps below.
Note: I have tested this on MetaStock19, the latest version as of today. It may work on later or earlier versions. However, I have not tested it out.
The lists are up to date as of the day of this post. You may update it from time to time. Say, once in three months.
1. Close MetaStock.
2. Go to the folder below on your computer:
C:\METASTOCK DATA
3. Rename the folder as METASTOCK DATA OLD (this is to save a backup).
4. Download the local data files as I have set up from the cloud following this link (it has a compressed/.Zip file):
5. Uncompress the downloaded file and place the METASTOCK DATA folder and its entire content under C:\.
6. Open MetaStock Downloader.
7. Make sure all the folders under C:\METASTOCK DATA are in Downloader except the ones mentioned in the note below.
Note: the two folders below do not contain local data downloaded from MetaStock. Fire calculates them. The Downloader program should not include them.
BREADTH_INDICATORS
CUSTOM_INDICES
If there is a folder with the words CUE Finder Universe in it, that is not for breadth calculations. That foldder is to download the liquid stocks data so that Explorers (e.g., CUE Finder, etc.) can be run on it. This folder is to be excluded (unchecked) from breadth calculations lists in Fire.
9. Run the Downloader program to download the latest data.
Your MetaStock local data files are now set up exactly as on my computer for the USA market analysis. They are as they are required to be for CUE Market Breadth, Fire, and Downloader.
