Re: [amibroker] Re: intraday data missing bars

The data is only what the data supplier forwards which is only what
the exchange dishes out. QT is only the platform to get the data, the
actual data I get from my brokers via QT.
I only have live my watchlist basket of stocks that am currently
trading otherwise the gathering of data would take a long time and be
very high in bandwidth. At end of each day I backfill all the stocks
worth while for the exchange (liquidity measures) This then overwrites
the data gathered during the day ensuring I ahve no gaps in case
something was missed. eg if your internet connection went down or even
just a connection glitch or the data supply went off line. This often
happens.

Cannot answer if QT method is better or worse thanh any other. I would
like streaming data but am not prepared to pay for it and do not trade
enough to warrant it
