RE: [amibroker] Quotes Plus Mutual Funds in AB
Bob and all who have replied:
thanks for your responses. I am still having problems.
I STILL
cannot see ERH in my AB program. I can plot it with Quotes Plus charts.
I have rebooted. I have switched
from external to local storage. I have repopulated (retreive) and had
to check Mutual Funds in the dialog box that came up.
Something is clearly not right.
When I click on Retrieve multiple times, I can see that it goes and
gets over 10000 symbols---EACH TIME. I know that when using my
FastTrack database, if I click Retrieve and no new symbols have been
added, the process is over right away, ie, there is nothing to go get.
With the QP data plugin, it will go and "get" the full list of symbols
each time I click on Retrieve. Does not seem right.
Plus, I still can not see ERH in
Amibroker.
How about somebody trying this
experiment for me...go to Database settings > Configure > see if
Mutual Funds are still checked (in mine it never stays checked) and see
if you can retrieve any symbols.
This seems like one for Support.
Thanks,
Ken
PS: why would being a Closed
Fund and not a Mutual Fund affect this problem? I don't think it
should. I just checked various other closed end funds and can see them
all in Amibroker.
again, it's a Closed End fund, not a Mutual fund.
ERH is there
in AB in the QP3 database
You either
need to re-populate or fresh
By the way
it has been on fire for the last week or so

I have no problem seeing
that symbol. You may need to refresh the symbols. Under File
menu/Database Settings/Configure/Retrieve (check mutual funds box
first).
I normally do that every
weekend to synchonize the symbols.

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.
