exporting-or-importing-data

This Tutorial will demonstrate how to import symbols into Investor/RT. The topics that will be covered include:

The Import Window is accessible via the Data menu. Investor/RT supports importing of daily, weekly, monthly, or intra-day data.When importing historical data you must specify via the Import Format menu, how the data in the input file is arranged. When the desired format is not one of the formats available in the menu, go to File > Preferences > QuotePage > QuotePage Formats to create a format that lists the incoming data fields in order. The newly format name will then be available for selection in the Data > Import window.

See Setup: Preferences: Import/Export.

Here you can specify whether you wish to be prompted for a comment or not. If you elect NOT be to prompted, you have the further option of specifying "no comment" or a fixed comment of your choosing, e.g. "This RTL object compliments of Charles Dow".

The comment exported with the RTL object is displayed to the recipient when someone imports your scan, signal, or custom indicator.

To view as text, select the Profile Indicator by clicking on the containing rectangle (of the right-most profile). If you don't see the volume at price data when selected, you'll need to zoom in vertically using the shift-scroll wheel. When zoomed to a level where there is space for the text, the text should appear.

To export the volume at price data, right click on the containing rectangle of the profile and choose "Export Data".
