I have long used WL Developer and QP3 as a data source. I use the
QP scanner to pre-process the QP stock universe to arrive at a
weekly list that I'm interested in trading via my WL auto trading
strategy. The scan is coded using the QP programming language and I
run it once a week. Then the resulting list of stocks can be set up
in the WL Data Manager. Each week I set up another list (identified
by date) ..... most stocks in the list are the same as the week
before. WL then automatically retrieves updated daily data for the
stocks in any of these lists.
I don't use sector/group analysis ....... my list sorts out stocks
per EPS, RS, price & volume ranges, etc. I don't think there's a
way for WLD to access QP3 stock data that's not in a QP list file.
If sector/group analysis is necessary for you, staying with
AmiBroker may be your best bet.
If you have further detailed questions, you could contact me
directly.
