I suspect that 
maybe Amibroker did save your data to disk when you did a save.  However I 
also suspect that even though the data was saved to disk, whenever you open a 
new chart/screen, Amibroker will try to find retrieve the latest data from the 
servers.  It just doesn't retrieve the last  quote...it always 
retrieves the maximum amount of data it can even if it is already on disk.  
This is my guess but only Tomasz knows for sure.

Here is another 
tip:  After market hours, change your RT database settings from "Esignal 
Plugin" to Local Database.  This way Amibroker will not try to retrieve 
data when you do backtesting and it will run more efficiently.  You can 
also do this and see if the data really was saved to the local 
database.

  PMTo: AmiBroker ListSubject: [amibroker] How do you 
  update your RT DBAll:Tomasz's advice in the 
  past has been to update your RT database (thesymbols you may not look at 
  each day) by running the following simplecode on "All 
  Stocks"Filter=1;Buy=0;Addcolumn(C,"C",1.2);Supposedly 
  this would update all symbols in some rolling fashion.I have been 
  doing this for a long time. Today, I did it again, includingsaving the db 
  after the explore process, then looked up a stock Inormally do not look 
  at, and when I opened the screen, the bars loaded,refreshing the 
  data.  It was as if the procedure I describe above had 
  noeffect.Can anyone (including Tomasz) share the method to update 
  stocks in theRT database?Thanks,KenSend
