To import data into CandleScanner from CRB PRO files click the Import » CBR PRO button from the DATA menu on the ribbon bar. This opens the PRO Data Import Wizard which guides you through the whole process. There are 4 steps within this wizard. If you need, you can use the < Back button to return to the previous step.
STEP 1
- Specify the folder on your computer where the PRO files are stored by clicking the button beside the Select folder containing PRO data text field.
- Select checkbox Automatic quote update if you would like CandleScanner to read the directory from which you are importing.
- Press Next > button.
STEP 2
- Wizard reads the folder specified in STEP 1 and displays all available symbols on the left side. Select symbols which you want to import into CandleScanner and press > button. You can also add all symbols by clicking on the >> button. If you want to do the opposite use < and << buttons respectively. You can select more than one element by pressing CTRL button or SHIFT button to select multiple rows at once.
- Press Next > button.
STEP 3
- Specify into which symbols group you want to store the imported symbols. You can either select one from the already existing groups (option Existing group) or create a new one (option New group). Note that if you specify a group it has to be of the same type, i.e. intraday or EOD as the data which is being imported.
- Press Next > button.
STEP 4
- The importing process is completed. If any problems were encountered during the import, you will see details in the lower panel of this screen.
