Re: [amibroker] Free Space for Indicators

["wavemechanic" <fimdot@xxxxxxxxx>]

You might consider a new folder under Formulas titled "Inactive" and even sub-folders.  Put unused indicators in that folder and either forget about them or delete whenever you are sure they are no longer needed.  I prefer this to the Indicator Maintenance wizard approach.

  Subject: [amibroker] Free Space for Indicators


  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
