Just 
so you know, the MS format uses 13:00 for 1 p.m.  This may be part of your 
problem.

Also, 
the "start time" in MS refers to when the intraday period starts (i.e., a new 
day starts) not the first hour your data is from.

I just 
read somewhere that for forex purposes, it is generally acceptable to use 
5:00 EST for an end time.

  Hello,
   
  I just wanted an opinion from the folks who own Metastock 8.0 pro.
   
  I primarily use it to store intraday data which I had saved on Excel for 
  a long time.  In inputting the data in the downloader, it asks for a 
  "start" and "end" time.  I originally started collecting my hourly data 
  at 1:00 pm. a few weeks back and therefore inputted "01:00"  as my start 
  time.  This was simple enough.  Because I play the forex market and 
  the forex market trades 24 hours a day for almost 5.5 days in a week, what 
  should be stipulated as the "end" time?
   
  I tried putting in 12;10, 12:50 just to fiddle around with it but found 
  that MS 8.0 deleted a specific bar when viewing the charts even though the 
  Excel spreadsheet contained the information.
   
  For any of those you who trade the Forex market, got any ideas as to the 
  start and end time or do you simply leave it blank?
   
  Thanks,
  Al
