Title: Re: [amibroker] Re: Multiple desktop AB icons + databases
If what you are saying is true one could probably create partitions however the lack of common AFL/layouts etc. would still be a major problem.
I am not quite sure what is the best way to simultaneously explore/trade multiple foreign markets ... switching DBs on the fly would certainly be nice. One would be able to cascade, or perhaps loop through, the foreign markets in the Explore code. For now I'll be switching manually...
best regards,
herman
