As I found out early on in the use of this tool, you
have to be a subscriber to get those settings to

[amibroker] Download speeds
Good morning,
Am looking for suggestions on why my
data download (Yahoo) takes
so
long. I can run the daily download quickly but if I loose a day
and need to do the historical
download to catch up it takes forever.
It isn't the actual download but the inputting of the
data into AB
that is very
slow. Have tried downloading and then importing. The
download takes maybe an hour
the import about 24 hours. It also seems
as slow to do 2 days as 5 years. The computer is
fairly new and has a
gig of
memory. Any ideas appreciated. thanks
John
As I
understand the situation, current and historical quotes come from different
servers that operate in different ways. Current accepts many (perhaps
all) symbols and then transmits all data at one time. This is very
fast. The historical server, however, works with only one symbol at a
time. In my case, downloading historical data for a week takes about
20-30 times more time than a current data download. Downloading data
for a long historical period significantly increases the
time.
