No, no formula can be confused if only "mixed EOD/intraday" is ON because AMiBroker takes all overhead
of extracing EOD data when periodicity or viewing interval is set to daily and extracting intraday only if intraday
viewing interval is picked. From the formula point of view it looks like you were running separate dbs.

Not really. If you are using eSignal (which has mixed eod/intraday supported) it is all backfilled automatically and you can go for
vacation for 120 days
and it will still continue to have everything automatically backfilled. In worst case you just do "force backfill" and you end up
with correct data.
