hello all,
i would like to request a little
feature that would help to give a more user-friendly way to organize amibroker's
realtime quote window.
at the moment, if you want to
add/remove a ticker to the RT quote window you have to do this individually
right-clicking on every symbol you want to get in/out of your RT window. if you
always trade the same stocks that would be no problem, but if your
watchlist/tradelist changes often it means a lot of mouse clicks. - every day i
scan a large US database to then have a watchlist of some 40 stocks that are my
trading candidates. this watchlist changes every day, sometimes gradually by
adding/removing a few stocks, sometimes by having a completely different
list.
in order to not run into IB's 100
RT limit, i will then have to individually do "remove from RT Quote window" on
the old list and "add to RT quote window" on the new one. this is very tedious
and unless there is some other way i don't know of i would like to request a
feature that would enable me to do this with just a few mouse
clicks.
just like in the assignments
organiser, where you can move groups of stocks from one
market/sector/industry/watchlist to another it would be very nice to change RT
quote window assignments.
here is another scenario: i would
like to build an intraday database of european stocks via IB plugin. the
backfill works very nicely, problem is the 100 stock limitation, which in my
understanding applies not only to RT stream but to backfill as well. if i
could change the RT qoute window without hundreds of mouse clicks i could first
backfill the 100 most liquid french stocks, then change RT assignment, (probably
then shutdown/reconnect IB plugin), then backfill the 100 most liquid german
stocks and finally backfill another 100 UK stocks. wouldn't that be
possible?
i hope there are some more AB users
interested in this feature request, which i humbly submit to you
tomasz.
best regards,
dirk
