Help needed with volume scaling I need some help with outputting QP2 data to "real" MetaStock format. Seems all of my stocks have a precipitous drop in volume on the same day and then stay low. For example, Dell on 8/11 had a volume of 19051200 and all days previous are similar. On 8/12 Dell has a volume of 114279. I regularly delete and recreate directories to allow QP's corrections to show up on my charts. Seems like different multipliers are being applied to volume bases on whether I output based on the following scan and different volumes result when QP automatically updates my data (volume scaling set to 100's). Should I set it to 1's? Thanks. Scan used to export data from QP2 // OUTPUT ALL SYMBOLS TO METASTOCK FORMAT Output="symbolms.lst"; exchange=amex,nyse,nasdaq; ProcessMS="c:\_allstok", MSDATA; if Close(-1) >= 0 then println symbol , "," , description; endif;
