Retrieval of intra-day data from yahoo in my opinion is a penny wise pound foolish solution as far as I can make out.Why? There are no systems to take care of any break in data continuity. This solution(?) though is not very different from the option of using data from IB to feed AB. Maybe this is a developing alternative to the existing quote vendors. Even in the
U.S. they(yahoo) are trying to develop a quote vending business
and are selling subscriptions for 10-15$ per month if I am not
mistaken.
Insofar as this particular case goes an Indian user had come across the possibility of using AQ to get real time quotes from yahoo and detailed the method for doing so here.Some people are trying it out. Will they be able to trade successfully with it? That will be known in time I guess. Yahoo data in India is supposed to be real time free of cost. If they are able to maintain data/service quality there is not much that should stop them from becoming a viable alternative to other quote vendors provided that the solution involving use of AQ can be further developed with the addition of a backfill service to cover any breakdowns in connectivity etc

Well, what they have done is write
a small script which shall get the Quotes from Yahoo and save it on local HDD.
Then using _javascript_ing, the same is imported into AmiBroker. The script
when running, pings Yahoo and fetches the At the moment quotes for the scrips
specified which is then appended into the Text file and using JS imported into
AmiBroker.
The best part is that
they call themselves as RT Data
Providers ;).

Hello Dingo,
There was a document (mail
sent on 15-04-2007 by Hetal Thakkar) sent across and also much
discussion about the same. I have tried it out and it does work though
with a couple of drawbacks.
The main thing is that if
you ping Yahoo Server say every One minute, it gives you a fresh
quote. Using this facility, its possible to use AmiQuote to get
Intra-day data from Yahoo.
Cheers
