So, if I want to do a study of a portfololio of 1000 stocks over a period
consisting of 13,000 bars, then in order to do that by using the method you
describe, 14,000,000 OHLC would need to be transmitted to my PC to do that.
That seems like a lot of bandwidth. A study like this would be long enough
when the data is coming directly off my hard drive, what will it be like when
run across a 56k line? Even with DSL or cable, that is still severely slower
than direct acces from my HD.
