[amibroker] Re: eSignal RT + QP2 EOD

Good Day,
Tomasz is going to have a fit here but I think it has something to do 
with the eSignal plug-in. I'm not sure I can make this very clear 
but -- I use Yahoo for my 9000+ EOD and run updates every 10 minutes. 
I scan this for buy signals. At the same time I run Quote Tracker 
with eSignal for my real time for Watch List and stuff I am actively 
trading (this is done with only one instance of AB running). OK - I 
use real time Dow and Nasdaq Volume data to match against individual 
stocks volume performance for the day ie. if the stocks volume is 
running ahead of the market for the day I use this as an positive 
indicator. This data comes by way of Quote Tracker from eSignal. 
But!!! I have to backfill my Dow and Nasdaq databases with eSignal 
first thing every morning because I can't do it with Qoute Tracker. 
eSignal backfills OK but Amibroker will not record the new EOD and 
save it. Inorder to make things work I have to backfill with eSignal 
then shut it down then manually adjust the volume data with the Quote 
Editor ie. if volume is 1000 I change it to 1001 and the ask 
Amibroker to save database. After that everything works OK. So my 
quess is that there is there might be something amiss between 
Amibroker and the eSignal plug-in. The backfills work when requested 
but AB does not record and save and neither does AB recognize the 
need to backfill for EOD as it does for RT. So your data 
discrepencies (sp?) may originate there.
