Re: [amibroker] Importing Intraday Data

Go to File->Database Settings and change "Base time interval" to 1 minute.



Excerpt from the User's Guide: Charting guide:

Changing bar interval (periodicity)

You can easily switch between daily/weekly/monthly and intraday intervals by choosing it from View menu and pressing the toolbar button (see below). 

The toolbar uses following notation for intervals - i -intraday, h - hourly, d - daily, w - weekly, m - monthly. The i represents "base" intraday interval as defined in File->Database Settings. Remaining intraday intervals are available from View->Intraday menu.

The interval setting affects active window only, so each window can have different interval. 

Please note that intraday intervals are disabled if your database is in end-of-day mode. Intraday modes are available only for databases that have "Base time interval" in File->Database Settings set to anything less than end-of-day. If you for example set "Base time interval" in File->DatabaseSettings to 5-minute, all chart periodicities from 5-minutes up will be enabled.

Subject: [amibroker] Importing Intraday Data


I'm having difficulty importing intraday data into Amibroker. My import file is csv in the form Date,Time,O,H,L,C,Volume,Open Interest. It is one minute per line.

Using the ASCII Import Wizard, the file is imported without a hitch. But after import there is no intraday data to view. The daily chart built from this underlying data shows on the chart sheet. Selecting View-Intraday shows all the different intraday intervals blanked out.

I'm a complete novice with AmiBroker. Would someone nudge me in the rightdirection please?

Esteban
