RE: [amibroker] Downloading data for Bulkowski

This afl will export your daily data, each symbol into a separate txt file.
Just change the path to suit yourself

 

 

if(Name()=="PRN")

       filename =  "PR";

else

{

       if(Name()=="AUX")

              filename =  "AU";

       else

              filename = Name();

}

 

fh = fopen( "E:\\Documents and Settings\\paul\\My
Documents\\Trading\\Stuffup\\"+filename+".TXT", "w"); 

if( fh ) 

{ 

   fputs( "Ticker,Date,Open,High,Low,Close,Volume \n", fh ); 

   y = Year(); 

   m = Month(); 

   d = Day(); 

 

       for( i = 0; i < BarCount; i++ ) 

       { 

              fputs( Name() + "," , fh );

              ds = StrFormat("%02.0f-%02.0f-%02.0f,", y[ i ], m[ i ], d[ i ]
); 

              fputs( ds, fh ); 

     

              qs = StrFormat("%.4f,%.4f,%.4f,%.4f,%.0f\n", O[ i ],H[ i ],L[
i ],C[ i ],V[ i ] ); 

              fputs( qs, fh ); 

       }

   fclose( fh ); 

} 

 

Buy = 0;

Hello Rakesh

That would be outstanding and a way I didn't expect or certainly think of!
I get QPlus data really don't want to download from Yahoo if I don't have
to.  

Please post it or send it directly if you please.

 

Have you worked with PatternZ? Engineered the patterns in AFL? 

 

Thanks for the prompt response

Joe

Not AQ but if you want I can post the AFL that dumps your database from AB
for use with PatternZ. As to the date format there is some flexibility WRT
built into the program. You can acess the date format options via the "File
Format" options. File Format--->Date Format.

I'm working with the Bulkowski patterns and resorted to downloading stocks
from Yahoo using MLDownloader yesterday. 

http://www.trading- <http://www.trading-tools.com/> tools.com/  to run
through PatternZ,  the Bulkowski pattern recognition routine, 

AND 

I'm asking whether anyone has been able to use Amiquote to do the same.
PatternZ accepts a straight forward format CSV

ASCII except it likes(could be it's flexible??) 4 digits for the year, YYYY
in the date field.    

 

My work is at a very low level, comparing his top patterns(1-4) with what I
see and can discern in AB. Sort of reverse engineering

since I'm not sure what his parameters are for example a
rectangle...sometimes it 30 bars and other times it's 15 for the length of

the rectangle.  

 

Thanks in advance
