David,
How does AIQ compare to TS2K in terms of intraday backtesting?
For example, if I want to backtest on intraday data, can I do things
like:
1. Provide a custom data list of stocks I want to use for the
backtest
2. Backtest over multiple days?
3. Grab intermediate data with a function comparable to
EasyLanguage's FileAppend
How's the quality of AIQ's historical intraday data?
TIA,
Cash
