Amibroker plugin

[Pervaz]

Hi all

I've been searching for a (cheap) plugin. I know i could use IB plugin but that unfortunely has 30 days of backfill. Norgate does not have UK stock data.

Ive been looking at a plugin for Investing.Com (https://sites.google.com/site/amibrokerplugins/investing_com_realtime_amibroker_data_plugin) and was wondering to see if anyone has tried it ?

Regards

Wondering how you got on with a plugin ?

Can I ask what the 30 days of backfill means?
Sorry if it's a dumb question...

I should mention that I was recently contacted by a well known ASF member who hasn't posted in a while in relation to this thread. He expressed his concern about these kind of plugins, specifically a warning issued by an Amibroker expert that unofficial plugins may potentially have "very nefarious viruses embedded."

So please always be very careful about what you download. Unofficial plugins of any kind can pose a security risk.

30 days backfill is only 30 days of historical data

No such questions as dumb

Hi Joe

Thanks for the response. I had sent an email asking a few questions about the dll plugin but didnt recieve a response so I will stick to plain old DDE

Thanks

What timeframe are you looking at ????

The 30 day limit is for 1 min intervals. EOD should be years.
