The Search For The Holy Grail & The Perfect Indicator... A Word Of Caution
Metastock Formula Holy Grail



There is no "Holy Grail". I hate to say it but it is true!


Unfortunately, convinced of MetaStock’s power, many Metastock users undertake a determined search to find the perfect indicator(s) that will lead them to trading success. It is, for them, a silver bullet that will slay the market. Somehow, the indicator is supposed to correctly predict a security’s price movement on every occasion. Its perfect entry is supposed to produce financial results that many people only dream of. However, most successful traders have come to realise that no such perfect indicator exists. It doesn’t today, never did, and never will.

There is no Holy Grail of trading. There is no Metastock formula that will let you know without fail how to make a profitable trade every time. So, now that you’re aware of MetaStock’s power, don’t get sidetracked by the idea that a Holy Grail may exist. The reality is that MetaStock, or any charting software for that matter, is simply a tool to be used.

When MetaStock is used to its full capacity, it can be an amazingly effective tool. But remember, that’s all it is – a tool. Our message here, therefore, is that you should put MetaStock into perspective with all of the other determinants of your trading success. Regardless of how effective Metastock may be for you, it is just one part of a successful trading plan.

Client Testimonial

“Dear David,

Thank you for your assistance in solving a frustrating problem in writing a new EXPERT for MetaStock. Your suggestion of combining (BarsSince and reference) to look back at an event that has occurred without using (CROSS) and being able to trigger only one (BUY) signal has worked extremely well.

There is little help available in this detailed area of EXPERT writing from Metastock manuals and tutorials.

Again I thank you for your valued assistance.”
