I use 
the following to get quotes - extremely fast.  As to how to be certain 
you've got the latest - maybe check the time?

AB.stocks(CStr(strTicker)).quotations.Retrieve(-1, varDate, 
_            varOpen, 
varHigh, varLow, varClose, varVolume, varOpenInt)

Lemme 
know if you find out anything.

  [amibroker] Accessing RT QuotesI got AB configured 
  for use with eSignal, and yes, AB manages the number of active symbols so 
  that you can stay within your limit. Very cool. I've written a routine to 
  loop through a list of 1,000+ symbols looking for pre-market gaps. I load 
  each stock using the stocks collection, and then access the last quote in 
  the quotations collection. Easy enough.What I am not sure of -- 
  does AB refresh the quotations collection when you load the stock? Just to 
  be safe, I've been opening the stock in AB and waiting app. 2.5 seconds to 
  allow AB to contact eSignal and refresh that stock. However, I've run into 
  problems -- after looping successfully through a number of stocks, I 
  suddenly got an error indicating the an object was not set. The AB screen 
  had also been modified -- the moveable toolbars were rearranged and the 
  MACD window had been closed. So, this does not look like a good 
  approach.The only method I see to apparently update the quotes is 
  refreshall() -- is there a way to load a single stock, and be sure you 
  have the latest RT quote for that stock without opening it in AB 
  programatically? Any insights appreciated! 
  Thanks,GordonSend
