Tried to download intraday tape from eSignal into Excel. Need help on how to do it automatically from a list of ticker symbols. I'd like to download about 300 stocks a night. Any help is greatly appreciated. P.S. eSignal's tech support has not been very helpful.
I don't think it's possible with Excel and DDE. Why respond with a PM? We on the board would also like to know how this is done.
Hello Scott, Now that we have your attention, any idea why the USD index on my e-signal stopped quoting price. Last quote was on 11/9. The system does not load the Daily chart either... This was working fine previous to this date... Is this common the charting software...? Thanks
You should have received this email from eSignal: "..As of 11/09/06, we are no longer able to provide the US Dollar Cash Index ($DXC) as a part of our default indicies package. To continue seeing this data in real time, you will need to subscribe to the NYBOT ($97/mo). The NYBOT symbol for US Dollar Cash Index is DX A0. You can also get this data via our North American Delayed Futures bundle at just $15/mo. This bundle also includes delayed data for the CME, NYMEX, CBOT, etc..." Hope this explains it Bernd Kuerbs
You might want to take a look at QCollector as that app is quite good at managing data on a schedule and does work with eSignal. I hope that information is helpful.
