Configuring Bodhi6 to use the MetaStock data format

1. Install Bodhi6 using the installation instructions.

3. Enter your details including email address and computer name then click the OK button.

   
   Bodhi6 can be installed on 2 computers with the same Registration details so it is important to give them individual Machine names.

4. Click the Register button to add your registration details.

   

   If you haven't received these details, click the Contact button and phone the number on the screen.

   

5. Enter your registrations details provided by JustData. Connect to the Internet then click the OK button.

   

   Bodhi6 will fetch your registration key from the JustData server.

   

6. If you have entered the details correctly a window will appear saying you are Registered. Click OK to continue.

   

7. The analysis software screen will be displayed.

   

8. Select GTE Charting or GTE Toolbox and any other formats you require from the list of analysis software, then click [x]. By selecting GTE Charting or GTE Toolbox, Bodhi6 will automatically choose the MetaStock format.

   

9. Bodhi6 is now configured to download your chosen data into the software format/s you've selected.

   

10. If you have purchased historical data, choose Tool > History > Load from the menu. This may take a few hours depending on the speed of your Internet connection and processing power of your PC.

    

    If you are trialing the software you can download 6-months of history.
    1. Click the Configure button.

       

    2. The Configuration screen will appear displaying the exchanges you are registered to download.

       

    3. Using your mouse, right-click over the word Active to display the Reset option and select Received.

       

    4. The Received date box will appear. This will be automatically set to a date 6-months in the past. Click the OK button to download 6-months of data or change this date using the drop-down box.
       Please Note: you will not be able to download data earlier than this date.

         

    5. When you're satisfied with the date you have chosen, click the OK button.
    6. Exit the Configuration screen by clicking on the [x] button.
11. Click the Catchup button to get the current data.

    

    If you are trialing the software click the Close button to continue downloading data.
    *If your antivirus displays a message, you need to allow for Bodhi6 data to download.

You have successfully configured Bodhi6 and imported 6-months of data into a MetaStock format (c:\Data\MetaStock\ASX0 directory). From now on, you will only need to press the Catchup button in Bodhi6 each night to retrieve the latest data. The free trial will run for 30-days after installation.

Configuring GTE to read the Bodhi6 MetaStock directories

1. To configure GTE you need to know whether the MetaStock format you are using is configured to 255 files per directory or 2000 files per directory (Bodhi6 uses 2000 files). GTE's default setting is 255 files per directory. To ensure GTE has access to all your data please follow these directions:
   1. Open GTE Charting or GTE Toolbox.
   2. Go to File then Preferences.

      

   3. Click on the Grid/Font/Decimals/Spacing tab.

      

   4. Put a tick in the Use MSFL651 Data Access box then click the Save button.

      

2. Click on File then Open Chart then select a chart type (eg. Bar Chart).

   
   The GTE Data File Manager window opens.

3. Click on the MetaStock Files tab. Under Folders navigate to your data directory/s.
   1. Start by double-clicking on the c:\
   2. Then double-click on Data.
   3. Then double-click on MetaStock.
   4. Double-click on one exchange you would use most often (eg. ASX0).

      

   5. To the right of the Folders window click on the Set as the Default Folder button.
   6. Click the OK button to set the directory as default.

      

      The next time you open GTE Charting the Data File Manager window will display your chosen exchange directory.

   7. Double-click on the exchange. The company codes and names will be displayed on the right screen (if you have loaded Historical data).
   8. Double-click on a symbol under Available Data files or enter the symbol in the Find box and click Open Security.
