Yahoo’s Historical
^DJI Hi and Low are the ‘theoretical’ values rather than ‘actual’ [intraday]
values, so Hi’s will be too high and Low’s too low.
QP2 has both
indices and TC-2005 has the actual one.

FWIW,
yahoo ^DJI data is a mess. Yesterday I noticed a big difference in an indicator
and a published indicator for ^DJI. ( John Murphy daily update).
Indicator was ADX. After pulling out what hair I've got, and with
help of a friend, the problem finally became clear. High , low data for ^DJI is
wrong. Open and Close appeared okay. Even after doing historical update.
Be
careful if you use indexes from yahoo.

That
does not appear to be the problem. I changed the default directory but it made
no difference.
Finally
checked some other symbols and they seem to be normal.
Just
the ^DJI stops at 11/23/05 and will not update.
Thanks
for the effort.

Could
your default database folder be wrong? Sorry for jumping into the middle of
this...don't have the initial thread for problem. But if AQ is
loading your data into AB in wrong folder or non default folder, you need
to switch.

Dick,
I haven't looked at this for years now, and I am just heading out for
a two-day trip, so can't really look into it now, but I think the
answer must lie in the importing of data from the Amiquote download
folder into AmiBroker. First thing to check would be the directory,
AmiBroker\Amiquote\Download\. It probably will contain all the data
files from the download. If so, study the help file on how to imort
data from there. Also, check into what is needed in settings so that
Amiquote will automatically import the data to AmiBroker next time.
Sorry I can't give you more help.
Bill
