[amibroker] Re: Accumulating IB backfill data ?

I have back to Sept 06 in some of my AB symbols.  And I know others
may have more than this.
 
I don't think I have anything special. My DB settings are 'Local Data
Storage', 5000000 bars, 1 Minute. 

Also make sure you also add the symbol to the RealTime Quote List as
well and AB 'should' collect data for you. 

Now .. having told you that it works ...  It can be frustratingly
erratic at times. 

AB will occasionally delete or drop all data for a symbol. 

And sometimes it doesn't collect the RT data even if you have it in
the RT quote list.  

So I find I do routinely go thru all my symbols each day to make sure
all is well re data, and then backfill or restore from backup if it's
really bad.
