MetaStock
Symbol Utility

These self-extracting zip files contain the updated list of symbols and folder structures for use with the DownLoader and MetaStock End-of-Day versions 8.01 and newer. These files are designed for use with Reuters DataLink end-of-day data.

The stock market is dynamic and symbols are constantly being changed, removed, or created. In order to keep up with the symbol changes, MetaStock updates the symbol file found within its symbol database. The Symbol Utility reflects those changes. It allows customers to automatically update the symbols in their “Local Data” view in the Open dialog on a monthly basis without having to manually change each symbol within each folder on their hard drive.

Prior to installing the Symbol Utility file, we recommend watching our installation video that goes over installing, downloading and backing up your custom files. Please click here to start the video.
