I haven't followed all of this thread but for what
it's worth, I use the TC2000 plug-in for Amibroker and it is
instantaneous. It is as if the data was part of the AB
platform.
TC2000 also limits the number of stocks you
can export to Metastock to only 200 symbols. That was one of the
(many) reasons I switched from MS to AB.
I can also understand TC2000 not wanting you to
share their data - after all selling data is their main business (TC2000 and
TCNet are "free".

Subject: [amibroker] Re: AmiBroker - Data
Source QP2 vs TC2000
Al,Hmmm ... I guess it must be terribly slow to get
TC2000 data from AmiBroker. Has anyone tried exporting TC2000 into
MetaStock and then accessing from AmiBroker ? Is that faster
?Oh .. by sharing results as against sharing data I simply mean that
if I derieve something from their data say I derieve 'Buy SUNW', then
they don't have a problem if I share result 'Buy SUNW' with others.
If I derieve say 'hypotheticalIndicator' from their data, then they
have no issue if I share 'hypotheticalIndicator' values with others.
What they do not permit is sharing the actual Open,High,Low/... data
with others. (In other words, I guess it's not okay if I simply
export their data into CSV files and share CSV files. A reasonable
thing, I assume.)Regards,- Salil V Gangal--- In
