Hi All,
Am a new member of this group, and am looking to purchase AmiBroker.
My questions relate to data supply, specifically, to the use of TC2005
and/or QP3 with AB.
While I am almost wholly a TA trader, I have recently begun to explore
the FA side of things, and have started to focus on what QP3/TC2005
can do in party with AB. I've some general questions which I hope
somebody can help me with:
1st: If I do a FA scan or sort in QP3/TC2005, can the results be
imported into AB, so I can then run TA over those results?
Conversely, if I approached things via TA 1st in AB, can I export
results from AB into either QP3 or TC2005 for further FA? Is there
any validity in purchasing *both* products given the redundancy of
many features in each if I had both?
2nd: I am an EOD swing style trader, but would like access on some
occasions to *intraday* data for optimal entries and exits. Is there
a way that this data can be obtained easily and cheaply for those
times I need it, for certain equities? Quotes.com or Yahoo perhaps?
I don't really understand what "backfill" is, but I suspect that has
something to do with what I'm asking here... I do not currently have
a stock data supplier (or broker feed) as I have moved over from
trading futures and my HubbData supplier was for world futures only.
3rd: It is essential to me that GICS breakdowns into Sector/Industry
Group/Industry etc are available and updated in whatever DB I use.
Who maintains this - the data supplier or AB?
4th: I realise that QP3 and TC2005 only provide their data for the US
stock markets. Does anybody know where similar (ie GICS-sorted, OHLC
and key fundamentals) might be available for ASX (Australian) listed
stocks? Obviously, I would need such data to be usable in AB, and
again, a cost effective solution would be preferred! Is is possible
to maintain you own ticker lists and somehow use them to gather free
EOD data (eg: Yahoo) for use in AB, or is this not worth the effort
given all of the GICS groupings and constant changes etc.
I am quite adept at writing complex excel formula, so I hope that a)
the AFL is similar in construction and concept, and that b) I can
contribute in a worthwhile manner here in the future!!
Cheers.
