[amibroker] Re: The New Fundamental Data

I know I saw the field list before I got it so I found it again.  
Here is the URL for the field list (.pdf file).

http://www.aaii.com/stockinvestor/programinfo/SIProFieldList.pdf

If you can't read the URL for some reason let me know and I can email
it to you.

I've had the subscription for almost a year now and used it to build
some screens.   As a matter of fact one thing I used it for was to
download a .txt file of all float data then used that reading the .txt
file as part of a scan (high volume compared to float).

Anyway, the data is pretty robust and you can build your own fields
also.   My only complaint about the product is that sometimes the data
doesn't match what I see on Yahoo/MSN and sometimes it seems a bit
slow to update latest quarters.   But, I'm 99.9% sure they are getting
current Reuters data so I assume that overall it's pretty accurate.   

In terms of data you get a monthly CD but you can also go onto their
site late each Sunday and download all the new data.

I think for under $200 it's a great bargain if you want to work w/
fundemental data.
