I have used Norgate Premiumdata for a number of years and it is very good. Certainly no complaints from me.
They have full explanations of what to do on their website for using the data with AB.
If you do not understand the instructions then their support would be able to help you

No idea what the issue is!

When they do, it will be even better than what they currently offer, which is already superb.

This is what Tomasz said in the release notes for 5.28:

"As far as I know PremiumData http://www.premiumdata.net/ is planning to release AmiBroker-compatible database with GICS support."

What does that mean?

So you guys are saying.... you just initiate a download, and the data is stored in the Amibroker database.... no other conversion is needed? Is that what you are saying?

Hi Kevin,

Norgate is very much around and runnig. I have been using their data for about four years and find the quality and reliability excellent. You get a little utility to click on from your desktop to do the updates which is a one click affair - very easy. I get the Australian market data of about 2,000 equities and this takes about 2 minutes to download each night. They supply USA data including futures and currencies and some other International bourses data. The updates, splits, new listings are all done automatically, normally during the weekend. Norgate data is imported natively into AmiBroker using the Metastock plug-in. Even better, Norgate automatically creates and maintains your GICS databases for US and Australian stocks and this goes down to sub-industry group levels with the release of AmiBroker 5.8.xx beta.

As Richard Dale of Norgate once stated: we have to maintain the absolute best quality data as this is the only business we are in.

I have no connection or pecuniary interests with Norgate - just a very satisfied customer.

Cheers,

Gordon Sutherland

What's the status on this,,,, is this developed, up and running....?

Anybody using?

How long does a download take, and what do you download

What is the procedure for downloading daily data?

How does the database, such as splits, new listings, etc. happen?
