This origional post was an inquiry asking when Jim Swindle would place a
LATER than >JAN/4/2008 UPDATED LIST OF US STOCK SYMBOLS on his UPDATE
website.
Jim was paid to create this updating UPDATING software, so he is not at
liberty to simply give it away to Amibroker users.
Yes, I would love to help JIM, but I can't think of anything I can do to
assist writing code FOR a NEW version of this updating
software.
I do recall that Dingo and Jim discussed the possibility of
a Joint effort once, BUT I DON'T THINK IT WENT ANYWHERE.
HERE IS MORE INFORMATION>>Jim Swindle's US STOCKS DATABASE
UPDATE SITE is simply an updated list of the
most recent SYMBOLS in the US STOCKS FOLDER within
Amibroker.
When you run a download from this site, it installs the MORE RECENT list of
the symbols over the OLDER list of symbols.
This process of UPDATING the symbols must be followed by a
HISTORICAL download of all of the TICKER data for as far back as you want to
have in your database.

US STOCKS DATABASE UPDATE
Perhaps we should try to help Jim out a
bit. What features would we want to see in such a stocks
database?
Thanks

STOCKS DATABASE UPDATE
Has anyone heard from Jim regarding when a later update will be
available?
This link to Jim Swindle's US STOCKS DATABASE site shows that it
was last udated on Jan 4, 2008.
I also recall that Jim was planning to create a method so that each of
us could run a LATEST TICKER symbol update an any time.
We all are grateful to Jim for having done this.
