Hi again again again, (lol),
Sorry for all the messages. I am just so excited about this, cause this will help me a lot since I often work in the evening and can't use Yahoo current day data.
I worked a bit and it seems the second code you sent me works fine. Works perfectly!
The only problem... is that it corrupts the optimization I was doing. It's bug it seems, because at the moment when Amiquote tries to update the database (which is optimizing at the same time) it created a situation where a window pops up and asks me if I want to continue even if Amibroker is now unstable. Even if I click "yes" the optimization is dead and I have to re-begin it from scratch.. A bit frustrating!
Thanks, Louis 2008/5/22 Louis Préfontaine < rockprog80@xxxxxxxxx>:
Hi again,
Ok, I think that I understand a bit more how it works. The file.js will open Amiquote, who will then save the files to a .adq file, which is Yahoo daily. But this file is only good for one day (until the next time I run the script), so if for whatever reason I can't manuallu import the ASCII to the database then I am in trouble.
Would it be possible with the same type of script to run Amiquote, to download the quotes AND to save them to the database (current, or chosen one) directly so that whatever happens the quotes will always be there when I come back?
Thanks, Louis 2008/5/22 Louis Préfontaine < rockprog80@xxxxxxxxx>:
Ok I ran an exploration with phony parameter (C>1) and saved the result to a watchlist and then exported the watchlist to a .tsl file.
Now I ran the script; it said "No tickers found in Amibroker" but then it began downloading the information as I wanted it to do.
But then, my question is: how to take that information back to the Database I am using? If I understand correctly (I did some research on the site) the .tls is simply a ticker list with no more information, so where is going the information and how to make sure that that information will go straight back to the database?
Thanks,
Louis

Hi Chris,
Thanks for your help.
The problem I have is that... I am not sure how to use the .tls files! In fact, I never used them; instead I would simply use the "Auto-updated quotes" from the "Tools" menu in AB to automatically download the quotes from Amibroker. So, I see in the code that you posted that I need to have the .tls files setted, and I am not sure how to do this.
1) How to take the tickers in my current database and put them in the .tls; 2) How to be sure that the next morning when I will open AB it will open the good database and that the database will contain the new information from the .tls file.
I guess this must be a really simple thing, but I still didn't get it... yet!Thanks, Louis 2008/5/22 Chris DePuy < cdepuy@xxxxxxxxx>:
You could try this.. (where big = your database
name). If you have questions about detailing this, then you might want to
do a "site:www.amibroker.com AB.LoadDatabase" search and see what is on the ami
site.
Good luck

control
Thanks,
This is what I was looking for...
Unfortunately, I
know nothing (nada, niet, rien) of this language. I don't
use any .tls folder; is it possible to build such script that would
automatically look into AB and update the quotes in the selected
database? Or would it be better to save my current databse in
.tls?
Thanks,
Louis

Yuki had asked in "Re: [amibroker]
amiquote lack of control" now Louis has asked in
"Is it possible to run Amiquote automatically". Here is how to get
Amiquote to run by itself from "outside" of Amibroker.
Amibroker and its related programs are easy to
make work from other programs, like DOS boxes, or by double clicking in
windows.
2) Now, here's some code to try (copy this into
notepad).
AQ = new
ActiveXObject("AmiQuote.Document"); AQ.Open("C:\\mysymbols.tls");
FromDate = new
Date(1995,5,1,0,0,0);
/* year, month-1, day, hour, min,
sec (required by JScript date constructor) */
ToDate = new Date; // current time
/*
getVarDate is required to convert from JScript Date to OLE-automation date
*/ AQ.From = FromDate.getVarDate(); AQ.To =
ToDate.getVarDate();
AQ.AutoImport = true; // import
automatically AQ.Source = 0; // Yahoo Historical
AQ.Download(); // starts
download
// wait until download and import is
finished
while(
AQ.DownloadInProgress || AQ.ImportInProgress
) { WScript.sleep(5000); // wait 5
seconds before querying status again }
WScript.echo("Download and
import complete");
3) Keep in mind, that you have to use notepad
to create this. And call it, yuki.js and then save it. Then,
double click yuki.js and it'll run a bunch of stuff in amiquote
automatically.
4) If you are interested, you can use
"Scheduled Tasks" to run yuki.js at scheduled times (See ramvilas 's email
from 5/22/08)

Is there anything for "normal" people? I mean people who look at
the link you have provided and say, "Gee, that looks like it should
be useful, somehow, but what now?" People who think OLE is something
you shout in Spain, at a bullfight?
