Title: Re: [amibroker] Importing Canadian stocks
This is when using the Yahoo website. Using Amiquote, you specify your own dates and you get all the data at once. You can also get all the data from the website by setting to/from data, scroll to the bottom and choose download csv.

Hello Al,
When Importing data from Yahoo for stocks which are not Indices nor US Listed, Yahoo at a time gives data for 200 days only. Hence you have to change the From and To date settings to Import the data you want. Normally what I do is give From & To date settings for 6 months at a time and keep on changing the same until my required history has been downloaded.
Regards

Subject: [amibroker] Importing Canadian stocks
Hi, all:
Having always been a QP3 plugin user, I have never needed to use Amiquote since first owning AB. But recently, I became interested in some Canadian stocks that I cannot get using QP3. So, after creating a .tls file, I tried importing 10 years of historical data for a list of tickers traded on the TSE. However, I only got 11 months of data imported rather than 10 years. I followed the help file exactly, and I know that many of the symbols go back more than 11 months. So, what am I doing wrong? I noticed that the symbols appear in my QP3 database. Is this correct, or should they be stored in the AB local database? Does it matter where they are stored? I'm importing from Yahoo. Thanks for any help anyone can give.
