[amibroker] AmiBroker vs other programsDecided to check out 
AmiBroker based on som heavy "testimonials" on other sites.Anyway, there 
are parts of it that are interesting. But has anyone spent a bunch of time with 
AmiBroker and then switched back to some other program?
Not possible: there are too 
many things you can do in AmiBroker that cannot be done in other programs. So, 
if you get into more advanced stuff, especially if you start using DLLs 
from other users, you are pretty well committed. I suggest you browse through 
the AB library and the files section at Yahoo to see what some users are up 
to.

One thing that seems strange is AmiBroker stores each symbol's 
price data as a separate file which is amazingly inefficient on space and 
awkward because i would imagine, literally thousands of files could get touched 
at the end of the day on price updates. I backup daily so waiting for my backups 
to complete would be painful as each of the thousands have to be written to my 
backup drive.
Aso the trial version for 30 days does nto let you save so you 
cannot really play with it after you spend time downloading.  a definite 
bad idea.Thots?------------------------ Yahoo! Groups
