The live data is at the US EST, so need to set AB to 14 hours time change in
the database settings, and intraday settings. And set the days trading times
to 20:00 to 02:05 being the US EST. This will give you the ASX market times
of 10:00 to 16:05

When I found data was coming in as YESTERDAYS date - I Gave up on using QT 
for any sort of Link to AB.

If I want to get an update to the picture of the market, I'll just load QT 
and view Indexes/Stocks & Figure it out in my head.
