Thanks! I will do this. Two followup questions...
I had thought about 3 main instances; one for the realtime window
which I want to be large; one for intraday charts; and one for DAILY
charts.
I want to be able to see weekly and daily charts in addition to
intraday charts. I can do this by opening a 2nd instance with a
different database and then use a different layout for these
charts. The only problems (besides the current daily bar not being
updated) is that if I change a symbol are (1) in one system I have
to change the symbol in the other and (2) every time I open each
instance I have to move the instance to a spot on the screen and
pick the layouts. Thing brings to mind two questions/requests...
1. Could I create a shortcut to start Amibroker w/ parameters such
as the database name, layout and possibly x,y screen location, so i
could have an icon for the intraday system and a different icon for
the daily system that would open each w/ the proper database, layout
and location?
2. If I change the system in one instance could you add a
feature/option to find other instances (if any) of amibroker and if
checked off automatically change the symbol in the 2nd window?
Both would make using this much easier unless there are other ways
of doing.
Thanks!!!
