great to hear from you again.
For me..i have the problem same as in the years before.
Could you please eventually send a mail to Tomasz, maybe anything could be
done now ?
Would be very fine to use the simulator.
Regards

Subject: Re: [amibroker] Is Simulator tool broken?
Hi Dave/Thomas,
>From what I can deduce it seems that the Retreive() function is not
handing certain date/time stamps correctly i.e '31/01/2003 00:00:00'
the time portion is removed from the data so (from memory) that
particular bar will always appear as the first bar for that days
session until the new day is reached.
In March 2005 I lodged a support ticket for that problem with the Retreive()
function which
is part of the AMiBroker COM interface used by the simulator tool.
I made subsequent enquiries with Amibroker support and was told by
Marcin that he had referred the problem to Tomasz and I haven't heard
anything since.
I'm uncertain as to why you seem to see the problem more now than
before, it could be coincidence or perhaps some other issue. If you
would like to send me a copy of 3/4 days data I will take a look for
you.
(See copy of support ticket #18892 below)
