Re: ODIN/***** realtime data to Amibroker, Metastock, Fcharts, Excel & txt with Backf

Dear Gandhi,

If you are doing backfill externally (not by ChartsData but using ChartsData Amibroker database) then it should be done to C:\ChartsData\Amibroker database else backfill from external source will be done to default database in Amibroker installation directory.

Unless and otherwise if you are using C:\ChartsData\Amibroker database for all your charting, real-time update, backfilling - you will not loose any data but if you change database either known or unknown then it will lead to loss of data as your charting database is different from backfill.

Make sure to use the same database for all your operations and take backup periodically to avoid crashing if you use more than one application for real-time update or backfill.

Thanks & Regards,
Loganathan

Dear Loganathan,
Due to following two reasons, I need to backfill c:\chartsdata\amibroker from external IEOD data.
1) I may be absent on that trading day or
2)datafeed from angel Odin was interrupted due to some reason.
But I found the backfill made by me goes away once chartsdata starts for another day. How to overcome this and do backfill because above reasons.

Dear Shravank,

Yes, few members got this kind of warning messages but you can ignore as chartsdata tries to download data from web every 1 or 2 second and few anti-virus programs might treat this as a threat (normal applications won't download any kind of data this frequent) and gave you the warning messages. If you were not able to install, just disable AV till the installation and enable it again.

If you have downloaded the installation file from any other source, please delete them and download it from here or here

I assure that it is not a Virus or Trojan as it has been installed in all kinds of windows servers with up to date security patches.

Thanks & Regards,
Loganathan

Hi

I have tried to reinstall your program after a long gap

I am getting the following virus alert when I try to install

TR/VB.Downloader.Gen

As i have Avira Anti virus installed, it does not even give me the option of allowing me to run it.
It simply quarantines the file.
As such I cannot install your program

Please advise

Thanks

Dear Tej,

Yes, you can get Nifty index RT data to Amibroker via ChartsData - Just add Nifty index (NIFTY - EQ) in your ODIN and you can see NIFTY updating in Amibroker like any other cash scripts.

If you want to sync with YAH00, then give custom symbol name NIFTY = Nifty_Spt.

Thanks & Regards,
Loganathan

i have added Nifty Index in the Market watch but still it doesnt update data into Ami.
hv noticed that any scrip that is in the odin mw starts updating in ami, if the scripname is not there it makes one
but its not making one for NIFTY Index.

Hi

Thanks for the answer.

I have installed the same by turning off the AV & then turning it on again.
Now the rates are getting updated in your program screen every 5 seconds through ODIN but the same is not getting reflected in MS

I am trying to get the data for Nifty futures into MS

The folder C:\ChartsData\MSData\MinuteData is totally empty

I have pressed the update button for metastock in the screen & yet data folder is empty

Do I have to search elsewhere for the data ? or what am I doing wrong?

Thanks for advising

Dear Tejvish,

1. you should have atleast 2 scripts in your odin profile
2. since you are using limited version - NIFTY should appear in first 2 scripts else it will not be processed
3. If you had done both, are you able to see NIFTY in C:\ChartsData\Data\MinuteData.txt?

Thanks & Regards,

Dear Tejvish,

Sorry, I haven't updated the limited version to work with indices as it was done only to registered versions before - now it was updated and you can download the same from below links. Also, it was updated to view real-time forex scripts like EUR vs USD, GBP vs EUR etc from YAH00.

Link 1

or

Link 2

Password to install: Traderji

Please uninstall the previous version and install the new one - check it out and let me know if you need my support.

Thanks & Regards,
Loganathan

I have done backfill externally to C:\ChartsData\Amibroker by using IEOD data. But once I start charts data, backfilled data disappears for ever. what to do?

Dear Mr. Loganathan,

I am able to get the rates updated in MS for Cash scripts but not for Nifty futures.(Also see post No 1156)

Please let me know the solution.

I have downloaded the latest version from the link you have given in the last post & yet no bars in MS

Thanks for advising

Dear Gandhi,

I am not sure how the backfill was done externally i.e. data record time-frame, frequency, format, workspace items etc... I have used the default Amibroker data format which was mostly used and if your external source is different from default format then it might make it invisible.
