I have a charting software called Market Analyst, I want to be able to generate charts using free 3rd party data from Cooltraders. i have successfully downloaded end of day data and Market Analyst says the data is there and it is in a supported format,[Metastock] but I have been UNABLE to get a chart of the data, I think it may be that I have to get the data entered on a STOCK by stock basis but how to do It?
PeterYou can get more information from your favorite broker.
Some have free or low-cost programs that do all the classic charts.
Here are two places to start your quest.
Investor Tools Overview -  Nasdaq

Or you can check with individual FIRMS. Here is a good one:

Really, all the major firms now have real-time and historical data files for investors.  The charting software that have integrates well with their source materiel.

Warning: Beware about paying a LOT of money for charting software,. Your don't have to. It is not rocket science.
