The Holy Grail is a multi year(at least
5) price and fundamental database for an incremental monthly fee
over QP or TC2000 accessible from AB. I'm tempted to switch
to QP from TC2000 since it offers stocks and mutual funds for one low
price, but still looking around. TC2000 has this fundamental data "of
sorts" stored as relative values but it is not accessible from AB via the
plug in except for two money stream and balance of power via
GetExtraData...
Any support for extending the AB plug in from the
forum?

Subject: [amibroker] Fundamental Data in
QP and CSI (was Institutional Sponsorship)
Dave,I think CSI has recently started adding some
basicfundamental data for some stocks. But it is not containedin its
regular data history file, but in its stock factsfile (access from within
UA to see this). I do not know ifthere is a way to call this data, but
even if there is, ithas the same problem as you note for QP2 - only
havingcurrent data eliminates the ability to back
