Yesterday I spent a substantial sum purchasing intraday S&P cash data all
the way back to 1987! ...I was under the impression this data could be
easily imported into the #!?#()! Omega Server but it now appears otherwise?
Yup, call me ignorant for not reading the manual thoroughly.
I'm getting the data from "TickData" which told me it can be easily
converted to other formats including "SystemWriter", ascii, etc., but no
mention of *.omz.
Would anyone on the list have any solution? How about intraday pre - 1997
.omz data for sale?
Thanks
