Default Metastock EOD data download



Dear Members,

NSE bhav copy has around 500 companies so we get data of around 500 companies in NSE bhav copy. If I want to import only selected EOD from NSE daily to my metastock daily. Is it possible to import only NIFTY stock data daily ?

Thanking you.

Jayesh

NSE Bhavcopy is in CSV format. As NSE is not providing bhavcopy for Nifty only, you can use the match function of Excel to segregate the data. You will have to prepare a list of NIfty stocks once in an excel file. Thereafter you can match the data of this file with Bhavcopy and remove all the non-matching stocks. Now, the Nifty data in bhavcopy is ready for further usage.

The same results can be achieved using the Unmatch function in MS-Access.

Best Regards,
--Ashish

th PR file provided by nse do segregates nifty, nifty junior and the others. formatting the same manually is much more easier. otherwise one can also create a macro to automate the process.

cheers,

Yup it can be imported into Metastock. The steps are as folows:

1. Open the Bhavcopy in Excel.
2. Remove all the columns except SYMBOL, OPEN, HIGH, LOW, CLOSE, TOTTRDQTY & TIMESTAMP.
3. Rename SYMBOL to Ticker,TOTTRDQTY to Volume and Time Stamp to Date and save file in .xls format.
4. Open Downloader, go to tools>>Convert.
5. In the dialogue box, for source,Select file type as excel. Specify the location and name of Bhavcopy. For Destination, select File Type as Metastock and give the desired location.
6. Go to options, Change the date range as per NSE Bhav Copy date. Select Daily for periodicity.
7. Click OK and within a couple of minutes, it'll be done.

Best Regards,
--Ashish

Always a pleasure, my friend.

You can use different data downloaders available on the forum like P K Jha's, Satya's, JDM's downloaders & converters for downloading huge data.
