I
think you will find that Paul's plug-in already has this functionality and what
you describe is exactly how I handle dividends in my non-AB
software.

(Simple?) Sugguestion for the CSI plug-in (was dividend
issues)--- quanttrader714

waste of his limited time. Mark, Chuck, Tomasz, Paul,
etc.I think there is fairly simple solution which would involve very
little extraprogramming work. This solution does not require any new code
within AB itself. All that would be needed is a way to tell the CSI
plugin which type of adjusted datato put into the O,H,L,C fields. Then a
user could, if they wish, select theirpersonal choice of the 3 types of
adjusted data offered by CSI (split adjusted,split adjusted plus dividend
adjusted by subtraction, or split adjusted plusdividend adjusted by
ratio). Ideally, the plug-in would be able to support and update 2
databases for use by AB:one without dividend adjustments and one with
dividends adjustments. Here is how itmight look:Database One would
have the following data:O,H,L,C = O,H,L,C adjusted for splits (but not for
dividends)V = Volume not adjusted for splitsOI = Close not adjusted
for splits (the "raw" close).Database Two would have the
following:O,H,L,C = O,H,L,C adjusted for both splits and dividendsV =
same as the first databaseOI = same as the first databaseMy guess
is everyone would want Database One since that would be similar to
dataother users would be using from most providers - thus allowing users
to compare testresults. Some CSI users, perhaps a minority,
perhaps a majority, might also wish for theirown peace of mind to re-run
system tests using Database Two - just to be sure that asystem's results
were not biased by the absence of dividends in Database One.Is it
"doable" to give the CSI plugin the ability to maintain two distinct
databasesfor AB? By that I mean is this doable without it requiring a lot
of extraprogramming?
