Sir,
Is it not possible to increase the number of data sources in amiquote
and also make amiquote get data in intraday format like QT ?
With refrence to as said below
<Quote>
2. "middle-man" application like QT (between quote source and
AMiBroker) makes just things "fragile" and it must be run all the
time in parallel. This eats computer resources that can be better
utilised when direct connection to data source is implemented

(in hours) between your local time and US Eastern time (EST). This
field is needed because QuoteTracker's server reports all times in
EST time zone. This means that if you live in Australia QuoteTracker
will report ASX quotes with EST time zone and they will be 15 hours
off from your local time. While AmiBroker has the setting for
shifting intraday charts and this is not a problem when running
Intraday mode, it becomes a problem when using daily (EOD) mode
because quotes reported by QuoteTracker are one day off then. This
setting solves this as AmiBroker adds the number of hours entered
here to the time reported by QuoteTracker to get the valid date of
quote in daily mode. This field is filled in with the difference
calculated using your Windows Time settings. "
