[amibroker] Re: New Yahoo US-Stocks Database

["jrswindle2001" <jr.ab@xxxxxxxxxx>]

Well, it is true you get what you pay for. I guess a lot of it depends
upon what you are trying to do with it. Personally, I use it mostly
for scanning and isolating those securities that I have interest in
long term. I don't trade off of it at all. 

Then when things look like what I want, I use AB with IB or TS to
verify my findings. Then I take the trade... I like the idea of using
a couple of data sources to ensure what I am trading. 

Best of luck!
Jim
