RE: [amibroker] Is there Historical data already adjusted for splits?

["Chuck Rademacher" <chuck_rademacher@xxxxxxxxxx>]

I 
should point out that all three of the data vendors I recommended are really 
only suitable for EOD data.   Others on this list can help you with 
realtime data providers.

  I 
  can recommend CSI Unfair Advantage and Reuter's (using the free MetaStock 
  downloader).

  CSI 
  has the advantage of having backadjusted and actual prices.  IMO, their 
  data is also much cleaner.   You would have to use their utility to 
  convert from their internal format to MetaStock or ASCII 
  format.

  MetaStock format.

  You 
  should also consider TC2000 data.  It comes with some excellent, free 
  software.

    Yahoo, MSN, etc) supported by AB provide data that are adjusted for 
    splits? I know Yahoo does not. It sure does screw up your backtesting 
    when they don't :-(.Yes, there is the AB purify tool, and it's great 
    if you're just testing a stock or two, but if you're testing a bunch, 
    should you really have to run down every possible split?Thanks
