Re: [amibroker] Metastock external EOD update & Amibroker MS plugin

I assume that (1) MDdata places data into Metastock folders, (2) the Metastock plug-in is installed and (3) a new database for Metastock data was created.  If so, then your settings are the same as mine which works fine.

Subject: [amibroker] Metastock external EOD update & Amibroker MS plugin

Hello all,

I am trying to set up Amibroker to access EOD metastock external
data using the MS plugin - and get uptodate data when loading the
MDdata layout/database. The MS layout does not display the updated
information. Do I have to import MDdata for every MS directory
(containing Master record) at the end of each day? Yesterdays EOD
update (ie bar) is not displayed in the charts so it seems that it
is not using the external files but the local DB.

Using AmiBroker 5.20 Professional edition.
 
Current Configuration:

Default load on startup uses local AB Quotetraker data base (for
intraday input - that works as required no problem there.

Metastock Plugin
Data base settings are:
Metastock data Plug-in
Local data storage: Disable
Daily bars: 1000 (what ever!)
Base interval: End-of-Day

Configure:
All paths to Metastock data folders: are loaded
- retieved symbols (although I originally used Import MD Data to
populate the internal AB database during the trial AmiBroker test -
which did not allow saving a loacal database).

My applogies if this is too trivial (and the terminology not
succinct) - but in my defence, I have searched the KB & amibroker
Yahoo site, and Howard's books but I am non the wiser (also only 2
weeks playing with a trial version and become a convert as of
yesterday)

Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Still learning,
Thanks
Ed
