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.

[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.
