Re: [amibroker] Screwed S&P chart

["Tomasz Janeczko" <amibroker@xxxx>]

Hello,
 
You probably imported the data earlier than 1950 
using Metastock importer.
As original Metastock 
format data used 2 digits for encoding year, the 
importer
uses a window technique which treats all 
dates yy<=50 as 20yy and all dates
with yy>50 
as 19yy. 
As with Metastock 7 (and Y2K patch to 6.5) 
Equis started to encode dates >2000
differently. <FONT face=Tahoma

Subject: [amibroker] Screwed S&P 
chart

Dear fellow users,
 
I´ve noticed that my S&P chart looks totally 
screwed up:
 
It shows data even for the year of 2050 which 
messes up my moving averages as well (open, high, low and close are all the 
same).
 
The data up to the last day of update looks fine 
though - where does AB get this weird data from?
 
Other charts seem to look fine...
 
Besides: is there any way of exporting achart so 
as to be able to attach it as a gif file or bmp to an email(then I could 
attach it to this message for clarification)???
 
Thanks a lot
