Hello Friends,
Here I am again with the Last Update for the next month or two I hope you enjoy & find NSEDataDownloader usefull as I do. I have removed the amibroker tie-up and added a few small improvments you will see it! but the thing is....Lets keep is simple....
PLease let me know if you have any problems using my program and I will address the problem when I get the time to do it as I now go back to work (Hoildays are over!!
)
Those who want a special format to use with FCharts let me know today and also send me a sample data file or explain what format you need I will try and do that before I leave.
Regards,
Preston.
Hi Preston,
Thanks for the update which does not insist on AB to be running.
I have tried on my non-AB system and it is working as on the AB system without error as earlier. This will enable all other users also to be benefited.
I made some observations earlier and I am not aware of your reactions on some of them. A response from you on each of the request is very much appreciated. You may accept and incorporate in the next update or a later update or not-at-all, for your own reasons. I will be grateful for a line in response to each point.
In continuation to what I posted earlier, I add the following observations on version 10:187. (The version date is shown as 22-Nov-2008, and not 26-Nov-2008)
1) I used FCharts earlier, but not using now. I feel, the data as it is now, may be FCharts compatible. Users of FCharts may try and give feedback. I may reinstall FCharts temporarily and Trial run for compatibility at a later date, if necessary.
2) FO Bhav copy, when downloaded, saves to a file name as earlier. 'Use Date as File Name' option may be made applicable to FO Bhav copy also.
3) The two options 'Use Fixed File Name' and 'Use Date as File Name' in Bhav Copy Options use a check Box and I am able to select both, which is confusing to the user and may be to the program also. The two check Boxes may be made 'Mutually Exclusive - like a Radio Button)
4) It appears that Options are always saved on exit of program and restored on restart of the program. In each run, the program picks the options from the 'current' set. - This is how I understood the program to be working. But however, with the FO option, this is not happening always. This is what i reported earlier as 'FO Option not working.
5) Historical Indice data downloaded does not have the ticker field. This may be added.
6) Live NSE quotes are going to Live quotes Opted folder. Good.
Live Yahoo quotes are going to Program folder. These may also go to Live quotes Opted folder.
Ticker history data goes to Live Quote folder. This may go to Historical folder like the indice historical data.
7) I was thinking if we can run the program as a portable application. This will facilitate running the program from pen drive, moving across different systems etc. Looks like no registry entries are added / modified. (Am I right?). An option to enable folder structure will achieve this objective. Please look into.
8) 'Add Header' option may be applied to ALL downloads.
9) EQBEBhav, Index Historical and Stock Historical: All may have the fields Ticker, date, open, high, low, close, volume.
10) NSe IntraDay and Yahoo intraDay may have the columns ticker, date, time, open, high, low, close, volume.
11) Volume, when not available like for Indian indice and some foreign indice may be shown as zero.
12) FO Bhav: No comment, at present.
Necessary assignments can be made in the respective TA software.
Thanks again. Buon viaggio. Wish you will be able to spare some time for the cause of this program while on your assignment.
