To be able to use Metastock in eSignal you need to have the Equis service bit activated.
For information on how to get the Equis bit activated and on using Metastock with eSignal see this article in the eSignal KnowledgeBase

I can't find the Australian stock exchange? such as $XJO-ASX. In Data manager the ASX is listed. I have a list of Folders Futures(signal symbols) Indices(signal symbols) mutural funds(signal symbols) Stocks- Bulletin Board(signal symbols) Stocks - common, Stocks - other,
Other and so on. Can you help.

Cheers,

To create charts for symbols that are not enabled for Data On Demand you need to first create the security as a Local file (you can use the Downloader that comes with Metastock to do this).
At that point you can create a chart in Metastock Pro for that security. However because these symbols do not work with Data On Demand the data is collected and stored by the File Server only when it is online. If you need to retrieve historical data you will need a 3rd party data downloader such as for example QCollector.
