IMHO IB datafeed is rock solid....As best I can
tell (not being an automated trading interface user) there have been
multiple improvements in the automated trading interface and
seems to serve some very experience users
quite well.

Nick.
Without being too specific, AB is the BEST product around, with wonderful
community and great (great!) support given by the software's developer.
You can definitely achieve what you just wrote, and in much faster time,
as AB is superior to any other TA software I'm aware of.
Good Luck,
Short.

Hi,
Im concidering purchasing
AmiBroker. Before I take it for a test drive (time consuming converting
enough scripts to check it works for me) I thought I'd ask for a bit of
feed back here. I have experience of a few charting packages but
Tradestation (2000i) and Ensign are my current favourites. The former for
its solid scripting and system type stuff. The latter for its array of
drawing tools and general easy interface and good visulisations.
Firstly using IB as a data feed (OK Im a cheap &^%$) is this
pretty rock solid? I know backfill can be a slow and TWS can be a bit
finiky with disconects sometimes. Does AB handle this
robustly?
Glancing at the AB scripting guide it looks like it will do
what I need (even if it means learning yet another set of syntax!!).
Any gottchas? I do a fair bit of multi time frame stuff...that looks
well catered for but does it slow thinks down if its all being
calculated each tick? CAn you dispaly two time frames in the same chart
btw? e.g. 10min and 60min dax on the same chart/axis? I guess its easy
enough to 'script' a higher time frame bar. Is there any limit on number
of plots in a single script?
I guess from the point of view of
general usability and ease of moving round and drawing stuff I guess I
need to try it. Any Ensign/ ex Ensign users out there? How does it
compare.
Thanks in
advance, Nick
