Dear JDM,

Yes, I know. I have some query:

If I daily update my database, the BSE EOD downloader download entire data again or only update today data.

Why this utility not compitible with bse code because I cannot update the database create by this utility by BSE Bhovcopy due to difference in scrip code(numeric).

Please guide me.

Thanks & regard,

hi moneypick,

If I daily update my database, the BSE EOD downloader download entire data again or only update today data.

its a backfill downloader and not a bhavcopy downloader. i myself has not come across any application which does download the data way back 1991, which the BSE Downlaoder does, and there lies its greatest strength.

Why this utility not compitible with bse code because I cannot update the database create by this utility by BSE Bhovcopy due to difference in scrip code(numeric).

look, the main problem is, the link from where the data is being imported supports only the script name. so its not possible to incorporate the script code.

what i would suggest, once you backfill all the data and got the same in your charting software, just change the "symbol", from the Downloader if you are using Metastock. its a one time job, although a painful one, but once its done you wont have any problem updating from the bhavcopy provided by BSE.

cheers,
jdm.

hi folks,
just released the upgraded version of the BSE EOD Downloader.

now you can download upto 50 script in one go

the data will be in ASCII Text format, thus almost all major software like Metastock, Amibroker, FCharts etc can import the same with ease.

can be downloaded from the first post in this thread:

hope it will prove helpful.

cheers,
jdm.
