[amibroker] Re: Updated Yahoo Symbol List - Rik Rasmussen

Hi
Yahoo is deffinetly much faster but late and most of the time it does 
not updates ALL the symbols ( I have around 2200) It just stops from  
same symbols on no matter what you do( current, historical etc)
eSignal is much slower but earlier and so far very reliable

I use both (just in case:)
You can use "symbol translation table ( Tools->Symbol Translation 
Table menu ) that allows to get symbols from alternative source 
without need to rename tickers in AmiBroker.

hope this helps
