[amibroker] Re: Easiest way to delete large number of quotes

["dclayw" <dclayw@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Thanks. I'm assuming that is per symbol, bit hard to test right now. But that option doesn't "clean" the database of data older then Max number of saved quotations. To do that I just created a new database and copied the broker.* files from the old database (this has symbol info etc in it), I don't use layouts or watch lists so no need to copy that stuff across. So that option you gave should keep the database from growing too much. Thanks.
