RTQownloader.
"RTQDownloader can download data from Yahoo Finance data source.
Yahoo provides real-time quotes from NYSE, AMEX, Nasdaq and India
(National Stock Exchange of India). In order to download real-time
data for US exchanges you have to sign up for a Yahoo Finance Real-
Time MarketTracker subscription. Pricing: 2-week free trial, then
$9.95/month".
Has anybody tried to use the RTQDownloader to get RT Yahoo data into
AB via the Metastock plugin?
The RTQDownloader seems to use Metastock format.
"Update MetaStock charts automatically
Following steps are necessary to update one or more charts in
MetaStock automatically:
Set up MetaStock into No Vendor position.........
...........By default RTQDownloader stores the quotes of the Dow
Jones Index in the "C:\MetaStock\DOW 30" directory.
Start RTQDownloader and select the "Dow 30.mld" list for updating. In
couple of seconds renewal of charts should start.
The update function is not limited to the "Dow 30" symbl list. You
can use as many symbol lists as you want".
