Important information for clients using MetaStock 8.0 and 9.0

To All Owners Of MetaStock:

In order to continue giving clients the best possible software and data experience, it is sometimes necessary to discontinue product support of older versions of MetaStock. For this purpose, as of December 31, 2007, Equis International will no longer be providing product support for MetaStock versions 8.0 and 9.0. Note: versions 9.1 and above will not be affected by this change.

Please review the following frequently asked questions to better understand the end-of-life cycle, how it will affect you, and what options are available:

Who will be affected by this change?
All clients using MetaStock versions 8.0 and 9.0.

How do I determine which version of MetaStock I am using?
If you are not certain which version of MetaStock you are currently using, open the MetaStock application; select the “Help” menu then “About MetaStock.” The version number will appear at the top of the resulting dialogue box.

Will I be able to continue using my version of MetaStock?
Though your version of MetaStock will continue to operate, you will not be able to receive symbol database updates. Moreover, you will not receive product updates, software patches, or service communications.

We work hard to support all MetaStock clients. Within reason, our customer support call center will continue to support clients with older versions of MetaStock.

Equis International Announces the Release of “PowerStrike” and “Tactical Trader” Add-Ons For MetaStock

Equis International introduced two new add-ons to the MetaStock line of technical analysis software: PowerStrike and Tactical Trader Advanced Trading Strategies.

“We are excited to announce the release of the PowerStrike and Tactical Trader Advanced Trading Strategies add-ons for MetaStock,” said Scott Brown, Director of Sales and Marketing for Equis International. “We feel these add-ons, combined with MetaStock, offer our customers new and innovative ways to make trading decisions.”

Created by John Slauson, PowerStrike is unique because it is the only add-on that determines support and resistance based on three developments in the market:

  • Stock prices are heavily influenced by trading near option strike price levels
  • Bullish and bearish pressures at these strike price levels resolve more quickly than pressures at other levels
  • Traders are drawn to option strike prices

Tactical Trader Advanced Trading Strategies is comprised of three different trading strategies developed by Clinton Schladich:

  • Time on Target system — This system utilizes time displacement and well known, slightly adapted indicators to hone in on trades
  • Geometric Vector System — This system provides a better understanding of price action using the theory of price action and resistance vectors
  • Strategic Edge System — This system is a more traditional system that employs a varied method of entries and exits

For more information on PowerStrike or Tactical Trader Advanced Trading Strategies, please visit www.MetaStock.ca or contact FundSoft Information Systems at 1-877-386-3763.
