A year or so ago, there was a recommendation from TJ to launch AB twice,
first for your RT data (point it to the IB database) and for the second
launch point it to the Yahoo EOD database. 
 
Or you could have two separate instances of AB in separate directories as
does this fellow Cliff s. 
 
Apparently there doesn't seem to be any conflicts although there was
some precautionary talk about that on the forum.
 
Hope this helps

brings this note up from 2003

I run AmiQuote with 2 instances of AB. AmiQuote is doing
a download every 5 min from Yahoo and the other is real
time from QuoteTracker(Scottrade streamer feed).

The trick is to start the instance of AB that uses AmiQuote first,
then start the real time version, in my case AB with the
QuoteTracker plugin. I use 8 charts on the screen from Quote-
Tracker and just let Yahoo update through AmiQuote on the other
instance which scans every 5 min a database of 300 stocks.

I don't know if this is what you want but it works for me.

Subject: [amibroker] Data Download

I would like to acquire RT data from IB and EOD data from Yahoo where
I can have an unlimited number of issues and also get mutual fund data
(unavailable in IB). So far I can't figure out how to set that up.
Can it be done ?
