Hello IceZ4,
Thank you for your forum post and for your interest in NinjaTrader!
While Metastock is not a supported data feed technology, you may be able to import historical data into NinjaTrader if you have it available.
Please see the help guide on importing historical data from .txt files on the link below:

Hello IceZ4,
Thank you for the follow up.
From the Importing help guide, there is a section about the daily bars (EOD)
Daily Bars Format
Each bar must be on its own line and fields must be separated by semicolon ; Only 1 day bars can be imported.
The format is:
yyyyMMdd;open price;high price;low price;close price;volume
Sample data:
20061023;1377.25;1377.25;1377.25;1377.25;86
20061024;1377.25;1377.25;1377.25;1377.25;27
20061025;1377.25;1377.25;1377.25;1377.25;24
20061026;1377.50;1377.50;1377.25;1377.25;82Ryan L.NinjaTrader Customer Service

Hello IceZ4,
Thank you for your reply. If your only source of historical data is Metastock, then yes in order to keep the data current you would have to import a new day of data each day.
One possible workaround solution is to use the Kinetick End-of-day (Free) connection which is preconfigured in NinjaTrader. To use this connection, please click Connections>Kinetick - End of Day (free) and load your daily (or greater) time frame chart.
Please let us know if we may assist further.Last edited by NinjaTrader_Micah; 05-18-2018, 10:02 AM.

thanks again... it's not whether it's MetaStock or txt (I can convert to either) or whether it's free or paid... I need to use my data because I have 100% control over it, and it's the same data I use for other analysis in different platforms... it's many times longer than the one provided by Kinetick (I have already checked on it) and I had adjusted it for special considerations...
do you know of any why to automatize the import?
Regards,
Comment
