users if you can post that script which download intraday data from yahoo or eod

with EOD data from Yahoo for NSE and BSE india
Hello
Saravan,
Please
study the following url :
http://www.amibroker.net/video/downloadintra.html
Here it is shown
how you can use intraday data with the standard version.15
min
charts.Amibroker is quite versatile.As for data from the nseindia
bhau
copy you can just download it from the nseindia website on
your
computer if you cannot manage to write a script and import it with
the
import wizard in amibroker.Its very simple.You can import and
segregate
separate watchlists etc etc. If you cannot manage a script you
download
individual equity historiacal data from nseindia here u get 10
years
historical data at a flash with the click of a mousebutton and that
to
accurate including open interest , delivery position,etc accurate
and
free but note it is only for around 900 blue chip stocks mostly 100
,
200 and 500 and mostly equities with large float.(Otherwise there
is
viratech which does the same but it is paid and only supplies
eod
data).The names are same as the NIfty neet and individual
data
downloading is little time consuming but once u set it up everything
is
smooth.
Yahoo data
is what i use. I havent had a problem so far even
when all the servers are
down.You can get round that problem also with
the help of making watchlists
on yahoo finance and manual import which
is much faster than amiquote
import .You can also get delayed intraday
data (15 mins ) free by using
Yahoo current on the amiquote .Form new
database and be careful to import
there .I do only end of day and i am
not a very regular trader but i have
used amibroker for paper trading
extensively intraday .Amibroker is quite
versatile like that and worth
it .I mean there are people selling trading
systems from anything from
10 dollars to 1000 dolllars.What other platform
u use for trading?
If its
a suggestion u want i would suggest u download the
usermanual 4.70 at the
amibroker bin folder on the webserver and start
from there.Setting up the
quotes is no problem after all its the
trading that is important and there
are a lot of us who use the broker
in our part of the world for trading.We
also have our own
usergroup.Cisco means u are Bangalore/Hyderabad
based.There must be a
usergroup in your area .Check on it.Check this
yahoogroups
usergroup(Technical-investor).Many use the broker there also.
If u want any more help
send me a mail.
