Dear all,
This forum, with the active contribution of many knowledgeable members of yesterday and today, has been a source of learning for many of us. We have been immensely benefited by such supportive senior members. In continuation of that tradition, we intend to pool-up the knowledge available with different members of this forum for the benefit of all.
In order to be a successful investor / trader, one needs;
1) A good software for doing TA.
2) A reliable data source.
3) Proper organization & regular maintenance of the database so that the charts & signals generated are MEANINGFUL.
4) Proper interpretation of charts & signals. So that the required buy & sell actions may be taken at the right time.
In this process, while there is some awareness / information about others, we felt that point no.3 is under supported.
As the title of this thread "Amibroker Database for NSE stocks" suggests, the data & procedures being posted will be relevant to NSE stocks & directly adaptable into Amibroker TA software only. In view of our limited exposure to BSE, similar exercise for BSE is beyond the scope of this thread. BSE stock traders may however find this thread informative.
Amibroker is a good software & some of it's features of database organization are under-utilized by us & may be some other members of this forum also. We have been working in this direction for some time to trim our databases to get proper vision of stock price movement sector-wise, industry wise and by other considerations. There is hardly any information available for the sector and Industry of the stocks. Even NSE provides such information only for about 500 stocks. We will be sharing our observations in this new thread. Other members who have made similar exercises may review and share their experiences for the good of all.
What we intend to cover in this thread is:
1) Identification & organization of all NSE stocks by sectors & by industries to facilitate sector wise & industry wise studies.
2) Procedure and files for setting up the sectors and Industries In Amibroker.
3) Sector and Industry charts in Amibroker. So that TA can be done on these charts. Discussion and finalization of Enhanced Sectoral charts.
4) Identification of different groups of NSE stocks like Nifty, Junior, Midcap & by others for study.
5) Updates and Database adjustments for splits/ bonus
6) Regular updates on change of symbols.
7) Identification of Sector and Industry and allocation for New Listings.
8) Other issues relevant to the subject & requested by members.
Users may participate actively to pool-up the wealth of information, so as to enable updation of everybody's database.
Please post your comments on scope and for any other features that may be covered in this thread so that this may become the one point source of information as far as Amibroker & NSE are concerned.
We hope that this thread will benefit all the Amibroker users in the forum.
Warm regards
