I have been playing w/ a concept that looks promising (on back
testing) that relies on 3 minute data bars.
I can manually enter watch lists each day of the 100 or so stocks
most likely to trigger a signal (those that have earnings reports,
upgrades, etc) but there could be others that occur to other stocks
during the day.
I currently am using esignal for my real time data but am limited at
their lowest level.
I don't have a grasp on how grabbing and scanning live data would
work.
Questions:
1. If I paid esignal to retrieve thousands of stocks at a time can
amibroker scan through thousands of stocks every minute to see if a
trigger has been hit?
2. If I wanted to keep scanning the entire market (for argument sake
say 6000 stocks) do you know how many I'd need to buy from esignal?
For instance, they have one price tier that says I have unlimited #
of symbols, 1000 at a time. Could Amibroker grab 1000, scan
through it in, say, 10 seconds, then do this for the next 1000 and
so on? So, if I had 1000 at a time viewable I'd get through 6000
stocks every minute?
3. Is there any better way to do this?
Thanks; any explation or insight would be helpful.
