Gerald: My first take on using Yahoo data was- "you get what you pay for" , but now it seems more and more users are living with Yahoo as their only data source.
I've used both Telnet(TC2000) and change to Quotes Plus about 3 years ago. My primary reason for switching was that I got mutual funds, stock, breadth metrics(adv/dec, up/down volume new highs/new lows of the 3 major markets. Of the AB local qroups I belong to, a greater number are using TC2005 than Quotes Plus. At the last Amibroker conference, we gathered about 12 AB/QuotesPlus users at lunch and the distribution list grew to 23 in the following weeks. I thought I'd spoon feed you a bit and find these links for you. Dan Clark wrote a lot and he wrote well on the merits of one data provider over the other. http://finance.groups.yahoo.com/group/amibroker/message/88260 http://finance.groups.yahoo.com/group/amibroker/message/85659 http://finance.groups.yahoo.com/group/amibroker/message/86251 HTH Joe ----- Original Message ----- From: "Gerald Monks" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <[email protected]> Sent: Saturday, December 02, 2006 11:30 PM Subject: [amibroker] Re: Quotes Plus reviews > Yes, thanks.
