Johnny,
I am in Australia (the lucky country).
It is different trading from outside the US than from inside it.
Sometimes we have slightly different interests for data and software
(the US is my second market after my home market).
I am not sure but it looks like AmiQuote data > AmiBroker is not
quite tuned to Indian markets.
I know that you can get RT from Yahoo but can you get AQ to deliver
it in true RT view (tick by tick)?
If not do you think it would be more popular if Tomasz developed it a
bit more?
(I know that India is heading towards being a powerhouse in the
economy and that the Indian stockmarket is the fastest growing market
in the world (or close to it).
I think a lot of Indians are using other locally developed software
to feed AB with YahooRT - maybe AmiQuote could grab some market share
with some better features.
Do you agree or not?
