Well I actually haven't tried it but it seems like you would just create a database with a periodicity set to daily than select IB as the data feed. At that time, IB should feed you the daily EOD data. I know Quotetracker can get historical and real-time EOD charts using IB data so Amibroker should too. (Actually I may have tried this already - but if so can't remember if it worked or not.) So let us know if this works as advertised. a=z :-) PS Merely using intra-day data set to a periodicity of daily would give you at most only 20, 25, or 30 days. I'm sure you're thinking more like several years of EOD data. In all fairness though there are other free EOD data sources such as Yahoo which is readily available using Amiquote. PPS Anyone try the "Amibroker: Fourier Transform For Traders" in the January 2007 issue of "Stocks and Commodities"? Haven't even read the associated article yet but am going to download the code and check it out later.
