Re: [amibroker] Re: How to download multiple tickers

["Louis Préfontaine" <rockprog80@xxxxxxxxx>]

Hi Brian,

Thanks for your reply.

I see that the quotes used come from yahoo... However I use data from DTN, so the ticker name should be different.  So even if I can download every tickers from yahoo, I would have to manually change the ticker name so it can upload automatically.  Is there a way to avoid this?

Also, are you sure it is possible to get the quotes from yahoo?  I remember I tried some times ago and wasn't able to do it.

Thanks,

Louis

Yes, there is.

There are some posts at the UKB that walk you through the basics.

Setup A Custom Database is the main one.

It shows you how to get ticker lists and how to use them in AB.

Look under DataBase Management.
