Re: [amibroker] Why am I not getting any Fundamental Data with new AM4.81 beta?

["Tomasz Janeczko" <amibroker@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hello,

For example the formula that uses 1yr target estimate price (not very reliable, btw :-( ):

OneYearTarget = GetFnData("OneYearTargetPrice"); 
UpsidePotential = 100 * ( ( OneYearTarget / Close ) - 1 ); 

// only include stocks that have price higher than $5 
// and 1yr target higher than current close 
Filter = Close > 5 AND OneYearTarget > Close AND Status("lastbarintest"); 

AddColumn( UpsidePotential, "1yr target / current price [%]", 1.2 ); 

Or another one a bit more complex, that uses EPS estimates and dividends:

CurEPS = GetFnData("EPS"); 
PE = Close / CurEPS; 
NextYearEPS = GetFnData("EPSEstNextYear"); 
Dividend = GetFnData("DividendPerShare"); 
UpsidePotential = 100 * ( ( NextYearEPS / CurEPS ) - 1 ); 

// only include stocks with current PE < 50 
// that pay dividends 
// and have price higher than $5 
// and have next year EPS est higher than current EPS 
Filter = PE < 50 AND Dividend > 0 AND Close > 5 AND UpsidePotential > 0 AND Status("lastbarintest"); 

AddColumn( UpsidePotential, "NextYearEPS / CurEPS [%]", 1.2 );

         Tomasz,

        Thanks a lot, Problem was I did not have Auto import checked. It works like a breeze now.  Now if we can just get some formulas that use this info. (hint hint)

        Hello,

        1. Do you have "Automatic import" box checked ?
        2. Did you open View->Symbol Information ?
        3. Look into "downloads" subfolder for files with the extension .aqfn (Yahoo Fundamental Basic)
        and .aqfe (Yahoo Fundamental Extra). You may open them with Notepad and look if there
        are any data inside.
