Walter,
> In short, what Amibroker version and add-ons do you recommend?
Everybody is different (it really depends on your trading style) but
as I rule of thumb, IMO, the easiest route is to start with the
Standard version and Yahoo data.
There's no need to buy data until the initial AB learning is under
your belt (the exception is hardened traders and/or those with top
shelf computing skills who just jump straight into it).
The standard version can work with 1 minute databases anyway so
unless you are interested in tick data there's no need for the Pro
version - the exception is Time and Sales etc (you need the Pro for
that).
RT data adds an additional workload in managing data so you have to
really need it to go to the trouble.
IMO once you find you need it then upgrade to the Pro.
If you don't know why you want it you don't need it.
