Hello, AmiBroker offers GetTickerList() method of Stocks collection in OLE automation interface that retrieves the list of ALL tickers, no matter if they have quotes or not. http://www.amibroker.com/guide/objects.html#Stocks
This is what AmiQuote uses when you pick Tools->Get Tickers From AmiBroker menu in AQ or run auto-update.
