Re: [amibroker] Quotes Plus Mutual Funds in AB

Steve,Ken -
Now that we have the answer on ERH from Gary L of QP in the QP forum, that the status code was not zero, what are the other status codes?
 
AH! ONCE I KEYED IN THE QUESTION, I RTFM and there are the status codes. Lots of them.   In my database configuration I've got retrieve only active symbols (status code =0) BUT I was getting ERH anyway?  Another puzzle.   What are options do you have ticked off in your database configuration?
 
Regards
JOE  
 
  • "IssueStatus" - (string) - with default settings all symbols should have issue status = 0 other possible values: 0 = actively trading; 1, P = trading on a when issued basis, 5, 6, 7, A, B, C, D, E, M = not trading 4, N = new symbol, G, K, X, R, Z = changes to symbol, cusip, name, etc. - requires QP plugin 1.5.1

    Hi Ken - I can see it in AB. QP still has a number of tickers that are "misclassified". To get around this, when I do a retreive I uncheck both of the bottom boxes in the Configure dialog so the plugin will retrieve all tickers, then I run Cleanup Database on the Tools menu to delete all the dead ones.

    Subject: [amibroker] Quotes Plus Mutual Funds in AB

    I am a new user of Quotes Plus to drive data to AB (vs TC2000) and I have been doing ok with the transition.
     
    I just now retrieved all of the mutual funds I have been downloading, and can use them just like any stock symbol.
     
    There is an interesting closed end fund named ERH (Evergreen) which is in the QP database (I can plot it using the QP charting program), but Amibroker can not see it.
     
    Any QP data users here who could see whether you can see/plot ERH in Amibroker from the QP database?  If you can, can you speculate why the symbol does not show up on mine.
     
    I have reloaded AB (but not rebooted the computer), but I wonder why that would make a difference.
     
    Any suggestions?
     
    Thanks,
     
    Ken
