Hello

I am an AB EOD 4.0 registered user, going realtime (must upgrade). 

I currently use IB-Quotracker and AB EOD for signals EOD.
I trade intraday using IB fed into QT (10 ticker symbols only).

I want to use my AFL formulas to provide real time signals on 1 and 3 
minute charts in Amibroker Professional. "IB-QT-AB Pro"

I have considered Tradestation 7.2, however I do not trade intraday 
every day, probably more like 8 or 10 days per month of "possible" 
intraday trading (when I am not travelling-job), so spending $120 
bucks/month makes me cringe (as well as learning another "not so easy 
language").

I would use Lycos (free) for backfill of intraday data every night in 
order to keep the database up to date.

Questions:

1) Can I expect data lag and how much using the IB-QT-AB Pro realtime 
setup? I would have about 5 charts open and streaming.

2) Are there any problems overwriting the intraday IB data with Lycos
intraday every night?

3) How much lag can I expect for the AFL formula (signal) to react to 
intraday data. Can I set it up to signal on 1 or 2 tickers (charts), 
the other charts are indexes?

4) I installed a seperate instance of AB to another directory 
(/AmiBrokerRealTime) Amiquote appears to retain it's settings across 
directories? When I opened my EOD AB (/AmiBroker) Amiquote showed 
Lycos 1 minute for download settings instead of my usual Yahoo EOD. 
How can I fix this so I don't accidently "corrupt" the databases?

I would like the EOD and Intraday databases to be totally seperate.

5) Any comments from users of this setup please feel free to comment.

Thanks!

Jim
