Re: [amibroker] Is "price on demand only" possible in Amibroker?

[Mark Hike <markhike@xxxxxxxxx>]

Herman:

This is an old post but I do have exactly the same question.
I don't need streaming and backfills, just the open prices by getRTDataForeign() from IB data plugin.

Have you figured it out? or heard anything from TJ himself?

Thanks,

- Mark

For better real-time execution speed and to eliminate IB backfill problems (IB lock-out and DB-corruption), I want to work without any historical data, arrays, or backfill. 

I just want to be able to get a, using getRTDataForeign(), a specific price when I need it. For efficiency prices may be "sampled" at different rates depending on my system needs.

1) Is it possible to limit data collection through the IB data plug-in to getRTData() functions ONLY?

2) Would I even need a database for such a setup?

Is this possible?

thanks,

herman
