Hi Sowmya b
I have downloaded the patternz software. It is asking for a vbx file named msmasked.vbx without which it can not open. Can you suggest me how it can be downloaded. Upon searching in google it led me to a site but i can not down load from the site since the page does not open. or else can you load it to traderji forum.
Thanking you

hi soumya,

i tried to install patternz on my system. says vbrun300.dll not found. downloaded from dllfiles.com, but still coundn't succeed.

you might have already installed on your system. if you can make a step-by-step installation notes from the help file, it may help many, including me.

hope you can lead other members through, as with fibotrader.

by the way, the other content at the download link provided is very interesting too.

thanks.

Just Curious... Have you tried it? and what are results looking like ?
good!
i think any software in the world can not accurately find any pattern.
Patternz just help u to sort out the pattern like situation from thousands
of stocks then it is your tern to find the actual one.
the site is much worth than the software.

strange! i didn't encounter any problem.
if your system is running on XP then don't bother to install. just unzip it.

Hi murthymsr,
I am also facing the same problem. I got the vbrun300.dll file through the net and installed it. after that it asked for msmasked.vbx file which i could not get through the net. I can not upload vbrun300.dll file since the file is of 225kb in size which can not be uploaded here. I am giving a link to download it here if anybody wants it http://www.dll-files.com/dllindex/dll-files.shtml?vbrun300 if you get msmasked.vbx please upload or give a link to download so that many will be benifitted. I am uisng windowsxp professional as operating software. according to sowmya b patternz is working fine in windows xp.

Hello,

Ths software works well in Windows Xp (SP2). I had installed it. Follow the instructions given by soumya and also carefully read the read me file(text doc) in the Zip file when you unzip the Pattern Exe.file. Since the date format may be different for different users the read me file has some solutions to the problem. After unzipping you must keep only the patternZ exe and one excel file Frmt in the folder. rest all to be deleted. Frmt also to be deleted if your date format is different. While installing it never asks for any other file in WinXp.

I do not know how far the software is good. I feel the patterns are detected wellafter the event has occured. Any way in retrospective it looks very nice.

CAREFULLY READ THE READ ME TEXT FILE FOR INSTRUCTIONS AFTER UNZIPPING THE ZIP FILE.

Bye

Saji
