To import data:
# Select a symbol (see [[Operating_Symbol_List#Selecting Symbol(s) in Symbol List|Selecting Symbol(s) in Symbol list]] section). If the selected symbol contains quotes with the same timestamp as in the file, they'll be overwritten without warning. Make sure the symbol's price scale matches the price scale of the input data file. The program always uses the symbol's price scale when importing.
# Make sure the file you wish to import is a 1 Tick, Minutes or 1 Day. If a file contains bars, but has no static time increment, this is a Tick\Volume Bar file and must be processed using [[<span style="color: red;">'''LINK'''</span> /110_ASCII_Mapping.html name=""; Mapping_ASCII|ASCII Mapping]].
# On the '''File''' menu, click '''Import Data''', or click the '''Import Data''' http://www.multicharts.com/img/wiki/toolbar/QM/05_DataImp.png icon on the toolbar.
# Select '''ASCII''' or press '''Ctrl+I'''.
