RE: [amibroker] Free Space for Indicators

[Ken Close <ken45140@xxxxxxxxx>]

Ara:  I have several backup images of my entire drive, which will have all
AFLs within it.  So no, I have backups.  Maybe I should make a folder on
another drive just for AFLs and then delete delete delete in the AB folder
and see what happens.  Seems like a lot of housekeeping for little return
(other than avoiding the error message every other day).

Ken,
 
I sort of got the impression that you have no back ups of your indicators
... As far as I am concerned those are the most important thing on my
computer. Always make backups... I keep extra copy on disk and occasionally
put them on CD

I have gone back and searched the messages for "Indicator Maintenance" and
saw descriptions of how to use it but not much else.
 
I know how to use it but I have not found any strategies for either
expanding it, or avoiding "inconvenient" loss of an important indicator.
 
Now, you might say that if these are unused indicators how can they be
important...but I have numbers of indicators which I do not want to lose yet
I do not want to individually go and look at each one to see if it is a
candidate for deletion.
 
Do people keep copies of all of their indicators somewhere outside of the
Amibroker file structure?
 
I do not understand this limitation of Amibroker and I hope TJ gives a brief
description of why it is a limitation and what one can do to preserve
multiple hundreds if not thousands of indicator files.
 
This is a priority for me right now because I am bumping into the "You have
run out of free indicator space" every other day.  I go and run the Wizard,
can't really decide which to delete and delete the unnamed ones and then
several days later, here comes the warning.  I should not that the unnamed
list seems to reappear each time I run the Wizard even though I deleted
Unnamed formulas the day before.
 
Any comments by anyone who has figured out a reasonably efficient way to
handle this situation?
 
Thanks,
 
Ken
