Hi Friends,
Amibroker is one a powerful charting software. There are lots of information, discussions, AFL's, articles, data etc. scattered in our forum as well as in internet. There are only few discussions going on in our Amibroker subsection.
I'm starting this thread, so that it will act as a quick reference for any valuable solution posted in Amibroker subsection;useful articles, tools, etc found in internet; and more. Any new user always have many queries, regarding database setup, data import, data source, AFL queries etc. I thought of bringing all the resources(or links to resources) to one point, so that it will be a good starting point for any Amibroker begineers.
Friends, please let us work together and help out each Amibroker users (especially the begineers new to Amibroker).
Thanks,
Praveen.
