Will it support intraday any soon?

It supports only EOD data because my trading platform provided EOD in this format. Intraday files are available in text format.

Anyway, I'm ok with adding the support for intraday pretty soon, I would just need to access to some intraday files in Metastock format so I can check them out and test while making changes. I'll get back with some more info soon.

@nabil25x It looks like the only difference is that intraday files have the extra time column just after the date one. I did a small code change and it looks like it is working for me (also I used ms2txt.py -l -e cp1256 for Arabic files). Can you please use the newest version and verify if it works fine for you?

Sure I'm going to try it. But excuse me this period, I have exams. Thanks

Will it convert Daily data to Weekly or Monthly?

@johnbest5673 no, it simply extracts the binary formal. But once you have text files, it is pretty easy to convert intra files to daily or monthly, few lines of Python or maybe even a spreadsheet should do a trick
