Re: [amibroker] Update from CSI regarding calls to their API

["Tomasz Janeczko" <amibroker@xxxxxx>]

Chuck,
 
Thank you for your efforts. If there is such a need (I don't 
know if you want me to do that because Paul is already
working on the CSI plug) I am willing to write CSI plugin 
from scratch that would include any new features of CSI 
API.
Please tell me what you and Paul, Steve and everyone else 
involved are thinking.
 
Best regards,Tomasz Janeczkoamibroker.com

  regarding calls to their API

  subject is of interest to many on this list who have not joined the data 
  group.

  The 
  UA program manager at CSI and I have agreed on the syntax of the new call to 
  their API that will return actual and backadjusted prices with a single 
  call.   He hopes to have it working within a week and I will advise 
  once it is ready.

  CSI 
  has also updated their MarketScanner program to export data to AmiBroker 
  directly.    This is VERY fast, as it makes one call to the API 
  for the entire universe of stocks that the user is selecting.   
  Selection can be by various criteria, including exchange, sector, industry, 
  etc.   I have not tried this yet, due to the fact that I am having 
  download problems on my end.

  size=2>Steve, the program manager, is also keen to talk to Paul and/or TJ 
  about some way that the API can be called once by the AB/CSI plug-in for an 
  entire watchlist.   This would be considerably faster than any other 
  matter.  It uses a "call-back" method that I don't fully comprehend, but 
  Paul and TJ will probably speak that language.  CSI is willing to provide 
  the necessary hooks to the API, if there is interest in doing 
  so.
