AmiQuote 4.16 released

[Tomasz]

NOTE: This update includes all fixes You don't need anything else.

IMPORTANT: Sorry we don't support Windows 7 or lower anymore, due to the fact that Microsoft abandoned this system 4 years ago and Windows 7 doesn't support secure transmission using modern protocols.

A new public version of AmiQuote 4.16 is released now.

INSTALLATION:
If you are using AmiBroker 6.93 you can install AmiQuote update using Help->Check for and Install updates menu

To install AmiQuote 4.16 in all other cases, please download and run AmiInstaller from:
https://www.amibroker.com/bin/AmiInstaller.exe
and follow on-screen directions

NOTE: 64-bit version of AmiQuote now requires Microsoft Visual C++ 2022 runtime. The setup program should detect missing runtime and download it for you. If it doesn't you may need to download the runtime separately and install it.

HOW TO USE YAHOO FIX?

After AmiQuote 4.16 is installed you should change "Source" to "Yahoo Finance workaround"

CHANGES FOR VERSION 4.16 (as compared to version 4.15)

1. When user tries to use Yahoo Historical appropriate defunct message is displayed
2. Added ability to auto-import user definable data source during initial program run (after setup)
3. If user data source with given name already exists, the importer asks to replace existing one instead of always creating a new copy
4. New URL format fields {from_utime} and {to_utime} - they are replaced by UNIX time value of From and To dates respectively
5. Translation table now supports user-definable data sources
6. Added Yahoo workaround user data source definition to address breaking Yahoo changes

Full documentation on new features is included in the AmiQuote Read Me.

IMPORTANT NOTE:

Some people are apparently overdoing this and change defaults. Don't. The setup automatically detects everything.
When you run the installer - DON'T CHANGE the folder that setup suggested. It automatically detects where you have AmiBroker installed and proposes AmiBroker installation folder. And that is the only correct location. It should go to AmiBroker folder. Don't create subfolder for AmiQutoe. The setup BY ITSELF, will create AmiQuote subdirectory and put AmiQuote in its subdirectory. If you overdo and create subdirectory yourself you will have two subdirectories nested (wrong).

Remember to click Like in the post above if AmiQuote 4.16 works for you.
A click is very little effort but it is important to know.
Typically people only give feedback when there is a problem, yet they are totally silent when everything works well.

Clicking "like" or giving positive feedback when a software update works well helps balance the overall picture. Most feedback is about issues, creating totally false sense that the software performs poorly, even if 99% of people are sailing smoothly. If they are silent, loud 1% would create perception of failure. A simple click would make a difference.

Thank you Tomasz for the awesome support.

I worked with many enterprise vendors i.e. Oracle, SAP, Salesforce and they don't release a working fix this fast.

I tried out Check install update in v6.93 and it lists out available upgrades and detects my bitness. Very nice
