I don't know about amibroker because I don't use it but with Fibotrader you have an option to import files from a folder automatically. Check if you have some option like that on the amibroker forum or in http://www.traderji.com/software/amibroker

Re: Free NSE BSE data downloader (EOD, Indices, Daily & Historical, Bhavcopy download

Hi,
Hemen Kapadia (totalbankrupt),

Thanks a lot for this information on my query dated 17\06\09. I have downloaded your Getbhavcopy downloader 2.04. It is really a thankless service you are giving to us. Ton of thanks for data downloader.

I am getting an error downloading BSE historical data, "Could not find file E:\ Getbhavcopy software\temp\BSEbhav.gbc". what could be the probable reason? what shall I do? Absolutly no problem with NSE.

I am feeding manually EOD from NSE site every-day, file>import wizard>pick file>browse>open>ticker>skip> ohlc>skip etc. What is the short-cut to load historical data in one shot to Amibroker. PL. help me

Thanks once again.

CNB
Is the folder set correctly for BSE bhavcopy download in getbhavcopy options tab? Has it worked for you before this?

Hi, LAZYTRADER/Hemen,

Thanks for your prompt reply. Yes it is working perfectly alright for one day. The problem is with older data 01\01\2006 to date only. I was trying still older data for back testing, but could not do it.

Regards.

CNB

Hemen,
Can you give me the code for getbhavcopy? Since you are providing the software free of cost, so i thought that maybe i can try to incorporate something into it. Your name will be mentioned in every step that i develop.. It will be your software always, i just want to incorporate something into it...
regards

Hi Hemen,

I am using Bhavcopy V2.0.4.
In here, the BSE data is downloaded in foll format:
<ticker>,<date>,<open>,<high>,<low>,<close>,<volume>,<o/i>
533022,20090703,23.50,25.00,23.50,24.75,7188
...
...
Then, I load the data into Amibroker.

Now, the problem:
Just the ticker does not tell me the scrip/company name.
Like for ticker 533022, I have to open another excel that shows mapping between ticker and scrip.
It becomes very laborious.

Could you please suggest a better way. Or instead why we are not extracting SC_NAME along with SC_CODE from BSE Bhavcopy?
May be that could help.
