Success!
I opened the "Formats" folder and located the file called, aqh.format.
I opened this file using Windows Notepad.
The contents of the file read.....
# AmiQuote historical quotes download format (.AQH extension)
$FORMAT Date_DMY,Open,High,Low,Close,Volume,AdjClose
$SKIPLINES 0
$BREAKONERR 0
$SEPARATOR ,
$DEBUG 1
$AUTOADD 1
$CONT 1
$GROUP 254
$VOLFACTOR 0.01
I changed the 2nd line of this file from:
$FORMAT Date_DMY,Open,High,Low,Close,Volume,AdjClose
to:
$FORMAT Date_DMY,Open,High,Low,Close,Volume
I simply deleted the word AdjClose at the end of the line (as well as
the "comma" after Volume).
I clicked "Save", exited the "Formats" folder and went back to Amibroker.
I then downloaded the symbol "SPY" again and loaded it into a new
chart. I ran my test again and received the NON_ADJUSTED quotes that
now match the quotes I saw on a www.Marketwatch.com chart.
No problem. Easy fix. Success.
Thank you for your time
