btw, i saw the " ASX downloader script" at http://www.amibroker.
com/newsletter/asx.js (referring page http://www.amibroker.
com/newsletter/02-2001.html) but this example only has one ticker. How
do I use a script like this - run it like a scan? And how could I make
it get EOD data for all ASX stocks from au.finance.yahoo.com?
Even if I use a paid data service, this is still relevant as there are
a few non-ASX stocks & indices I follow, in particular the dow, SPX,
NWS, RIO.L and BLT.L
Thanks
