Even for EOD data, unless you reload all
history every night, which is not the way AmiQuote works, you will not pick up
stock splits. And you won't get ticker changes, additions & deletions in
any case unless you discover them yourself.
Paid data suppliers, like CSI Data, do
all this for you.

Subject: RE: [amibroker] DATA
FETCHING FROM YAHOO SERVER USING AFL
Yahoo! does not provide
free data "tick by tick" - the free data is delayed, not real-time,
and not tick-by-tick, just a snapshot of the latest prices (again,
delayed). Also, it's not possible with Yahoo! to "backfill" (get
intraday data you missed). Yahoo! is fine for EOD (End Of Day) data, but not
intraday data.

Subject: [amibroker] DATA FETCHING
FROM YAHOO SERVER USING AFL
I was
wondering y should we pay for data. yahoo provides free data
tick by tick or many of our online brokers provide
tick by tick. if we
can write an AFL for fetching data from
these server than we can save
los of money. AFL already allows fetching data
from a file. Experts
kindly comment and give us java or afl code for
the same.
thanks
