Our Forex data is installed (by default) directly under c:\Trading Data\Forex.
The illustrations below assume you have the data history installed along the default installation path.
If you have the "Forex" folder installed along a different path, please take that into account.
Now - let's see how to open the cross "AUD/USD".
1. In MetaStock™, click File > Open. The "Look in" edit box at the top (see [1] in the illustration below) will show the current folder
(in this case, the folder that holds the sample data that comes with MetaStock™).
Select "Local Data" on the left [2] and Files of Type = Smart Charts at the bottom [3].
Then click the up arrow [4] to start navigating through the drive/folder structure of your machine to get to our "Trading Data" folder.
2. Once you can see the "Trading Data" folder in the window, double-click on it.
3. Now you should see the "Forex" folder in the window. Double-click on it.
4. Now you should see all of the FX symbols.
Look down the list for the symbol "AUD/USD" and double-click on it to open that file as a Smart Chart.
