[amibroker] Backtesting using historical fundamentals in AB?

["dwrowley_2000" <dwrowley@xxxxxxxx>]

I traded for about a year using AB based on various TA strategies, and
generated some returns, but then I got the 'fundamentals' religion and
moved over to Portfolio123.com

However, I always really liked AB, the support, the continual
improvement, etc. - and now I see that AB supports fundamental data!

A couple of questions:

    - What data sources provide historical fundamental data? What are
people using? (The matrix lists QuotePlus as a source of fundamental
data, but it isn't clear if they provide HISTORICAL fundamental data
that I can use for backtesting)

    - Are people actually doing this? Anyone have good success?

I've been asking the P123 guys to add more TA functions, but they
don't really seem to put a high priority on it.

I think AB + access to the same historical fundamental data that P123
uses (Reuters, I believe) would be excellent.

Comments, tip, wisdom appreciated!

Thanks,
David
