No, AB collects data for ALL symbols being accessed in ANY way (you can for example run AA Scan over all symbols to collect all without need to chart them).

I am in Europe and I open the TWS + Amibroker already before 10 a.m. CET to prepare my day, corresponding to 4 a.m. E.T. Best to put all symbols in the real time quote window. To open see: View -> Realtime Quote put in the symbols you wish to have updated during the day and then do Right Mouse Click on CONN (right bottom) and Backfill All RT Quote symbols. If you do that every morning it should be fine I would think, Ed ----- Original Message ----- From: amarilloblanco To: [email protected] Sent: Wednesday, February 28, 2007 12:43 PM Subject: [amibroker] Feed on AmiBroker from IB I have linked AmiBroker with IB with 8 symbols to feed every day. Every day when I open AmiBroker and IB I display the 8 symbols, but during the day I watch just ER2. When the day end and I watch the other symbols, noone has bees updated to the day. I open both software early in the morning ( 6:00 am ET ) and I am thinking this could be the problem. Need I watch the charts right after 9:30 AM ET to update all during the day? Or I missing another task. Thanks in advance Eduardo
