No need to pay for TSE data, I dont need all the symbols, only the 
ones that have volume. CA:SYM works fine but works very "strange"

If you enter "CA:BMO" in amibroker and then do an autodownload with 
AQ, notice a new symbol is created in AB, "CA_BMO".  The download 
works, but all the data goes to CA_BMO.  I entered CA_BMO in the 
alias field of CA"BMO and tried it again after deleting CA_BMO and it 
doesnt work.  AB support suggested this.

Here is what I get from MSN when I double click on the symbol after 
downoad, within AQ

$NAME CA:ABH

Daily prices
DATE,OPEN,HIGH,LOW,CLOSE,VOLUME
12/31/2008,0.57,0.58,0.485,0.57,320400
12/30/2008,0.63,0.64,0.57,0.57,102600
12/29/2008,0.67,0.67,0.6,0.6,117600
12/24/2008,0.61,0.7,0.61,0.62,70000

In summary, it works fine when I have two of almost the same symbols 
in AB "CA:BMO" and "CA_BMO"

I'm going to play around with this a little more.
